Falun overcame Grünenmatt and leads the group    (14. 8. 2010, florbal.cz)
With a confident performance and productive offence did the Swedish team of Falun ensure their 5:1 victory over the Swiss Grünenmatt. They went into the lead in the third minute already and gradually they offered four more nice goal combinations to the spectators at Sparta arena.

Grünenmatt scored only once and in the evening they will play with their compatriots from Zürich for a spot in the quarterfinals. On the other hand, Falun with full points leads the round of 16 group AF and will play against Dalen for the group victory.

"Falun was a high quality opponent, like Dalen. They surpassed us technically, as well as from the point of view of the team quality and ball control. They were dangerous from all positions, their defenders managed to score even from the half of the court. The first two goals decided, after which our boys lowered their heads a bit. Therefore, we let three complete lines play and gave some space to younger players, who don't have a chance to play against the Swedes so often. We definitely needed to save some energy for the match against Zürich, which will probably be easier for us to win," said after the game the Czech coach of Grünenmatt, Tomáš Trnavskı.

His players have one point in the round of 16 group so far and need at least a draw in their next game against Grasshopper Zürich to qualify for the quarterfinals.

"The team of Zürich changed a bit in comparison with the previous season; they acquired Radim Cepek and several young players, so they will probably play a bit differently. Moreover, they are still in the phase of harmonizing, like us. It will depend on the performance of their first line. Their other lines are not so strong, but we can rely on two top lines. If we guard their elite line carefully and score ourselves, we can succeed," Tomáš Trnavskı speculated about the evening encounter.
