Seeya back in Prague in 2008." class="textInput">Despite the volumes of support coming in on the Sharky phone, the Revolution Sharks were not able to push past the Czech teams in the Men's BS group and will be spectators on the weekend. Hoping to turn the T-Mobile Arena into a shark tank, the boys had to be satisfied with a win, a draw and two losses in their first tournament outside Australia. Friday morning's feature match on Sparta II was an arm wrestle against the Latvians and the Sharks certainly had their share of chances in front of the net. However, luck didn't go their way on the scoreboard and the match finished at 1:1, with Derek Kippo scoring from a Jan Juris assist. Friday evening was a must win game against the Czech's from SBK BUH Praha. It was another physical encounter, with captain Ben Mitchell warming the penalty bench twice during the match. Early in the second period, Alain Othenin-Girard fired in a great shot from a sharp pass from Kevan Lyons but only found the post. Mikael Engstrom found the opposite post just a few minutes later. They were again unlucky when the BUH goalkeeper appeared to be laying on the ball, right on the goal line. The referees couldn't see if the ball had crossed the line and in the end, called for a face-off. The Sharks were finally forced out of the water and went down 0:3. The Sharks are now looking forward to watching some great finals action over the weekend and hope to everyone at the International Floorball Party on Saturday night at Zlute Lazne.
