Switzerland-Belarus 3:2 (photo report)
After losing to Switzerland, our chances to make it to the quarter-final are little.
Belarus national team has lost a decisive match to Switzerland – 2:3 and has made its task to make it to the play-off very difficult. The quarter-final has become a dream after the loss. Our team will have to defeat the French, Kazaks, Slovaks and one of the favourites (Americans or Canadians) to get to the top-4.
Here is our photo report of Switzerland-Belarus match.
Belarus has been unable to defeated Switzerland for the seventh world championship on end.

Hrabouski had a great chance to show himself. Mihail could tie and save the match 4 minutes before the end. However, our penalty shot virtuoso did not manage to score a goal (Photo by Reuters).
The tickets that cost 100 euro scared away our fans. Only a few people supported Belarus: most of them were the hockey players’ friends and relatives and the most dedicated fans who managed to outvoice numerous Swiss fans wearing superman’s costumes (Photo by Getty Images).
