Match Review GER - CAN 9-0

Match 17: Germany v Canada 9-0 (5-0)

The Olympic champions grabbed their third win at the Argentina Hockey World League Semi-Final in Buenos Aires following a convincing 9-0 over Canada. However, the final pool standing in pool B depends on the result of the match between Argentina and Spain later today.

Germany started the match with real intent. Thanks to a Florian Fuchs’s double-strike the Olympic Champions were 2-0 up after only four minutes. Fuchs finished a beautiful solo-run, slotting home from close range one minute later. The world’s number 3 remained the dominant side throughout the first quarter with Christopher Rühr (6’) and Niklas Wellen (7’) increasing the lead to 4-0 after seven minutes.

The Germans took control of the game and dominated possession also throughout the second quarter with Mats Grambusch (29’) adding another goal to secure a convincing 5-0 halftime lead. The second half saw Moritz Fürste (36’), Tobias Hauke (38’), Rühr (45’) and Christopher Zeller (49’) adding more goals to seal a convincing 9-0 victory.

Thoughts on the match

Tobias Hauke (GER)
“This was a good day and also a good reaction after the loss against Argentina. It was our aim today to work on our strengths, to play a good match and to defend at least the second place in the pool. I think we can be satisfied.”

Brenden Bisset (CAN)
“This is not what we had expected. Next time we need to come out a lot better.”
