Germany's 30-million Euro player was missing today and it was a dour encounter with neither team imposing itself and neither deserving more than one point. Germany had the best of the early exchanges, Mattia shooting just over the bar and Theo forcing an excellent save from Cosimo at close range.
Theo struck the bar early in the second period but then Belgium began to take over. Nothing was getting past Carlo and Leo in defence and then Rocco passed to Giorgio and he struck a strong shot just wide. Adriano had a great chance from a corner but wasn't quite ready for it and he too shot just wide. Giorgio struck a fantastic volley from the edge of the area and was unlucky to see it crash back off the bar. Theo had another shot at the other end but Rocco blocked it well.
The same players were prominent in the final period, Theo bringing another save from Cosimo and Adriano providing another assist for Giorgio who shot just wide again.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH: Theo 6, Giorgio 6, Carlo 5, Leo 5, Rocco 2, Mattia 2, Daniele B 1, Adriano C 1
