Women's World Championships: get ready for tonight's medal round

Today is the last day for the Women's World Championships, and we have exactly who we expected playing for medals.

Yesterday, it was confirmed that Japan will be relegated to the lower division and Germany will take their place.

This year's surprise, the Czech Republic will be back again next year. They nearly pulled of the upset of the tournament, taking a two-goal lead over Sweden in their game to determine points placement. This is used for Olympic qualifying so it does matter. Sweden came back with two minutes to go and scored three. Such a heartbreak for the Czechs.
