2020 World Juniors: SWE vs. FIN highlights — Sweden fends off Annunen in overtime, extends streak to 49

Boxing Day 2019 was the day of regional battles. We started the day by watching the Czech Republic fend off their arch nemesis, Russia, in a game that had almost as many penalties as shots on goal. Following that matchup, a fight for North American prominence in Group B awaited us, as well as this one: the battle of Fennoscandia between Sweden and Finland. The Three Crowns against The Finnish Lions. Ruotsi vastaan Suomi. Sverige mot Finland. A highly important game, not only for the supporters but quite possibly also an early decider for the top seed in Group A.
