England 2 - 2 Switzerland
Half-time 0-0
Another excellent performance on the man to man restricted defence and with good counter attacks. Players concentrated well and had control of the game all first half. We deserved be ahead on the first half.
We started the second half like we finished the first half very concentrated and had the Swiss team under control; so when we scored the first goal there was no surprised. Then Switzerland started to pressure us full rink creating some difficulties they dominated the game in the second half due to tiredness; during this period they scored 2 goals.
However we never gave up and after a time out we made a tactical change keeping 2 players in their end with one always in the area, this way we scored our second goal with just 1 minute to go.
Great result considering we played the runners up World and European Championships.
John Jones comments after the game:
Everyone very pleased with the result against 2nd best in the world. The moral in the team gets stronger everyday and we are hoping to finish the championship very strong and looking forward our game tonight versus Germany.
