They made a lot of mistakes and the Swedes failed to capitalize on them.
The commentator (can't remember if it was Pierre or Ferraro) said that they were really laid back on the bench with like 2 minutes left as though they expected they would just win. To me that is how they played all game as though all they had to do was show up and the game was theirs.

Pretty accurate. Slovakia would be better if they had confidence in their own game. They play for a bit and take a lead and then sit back until the other team ties it. Then they play offense again. They are my 2nd favorite team in this tournament so I hope they win the Bronze Medal tomorrow.
