Russia wins 4-1. Germany's only goal came from a shot near its own blueline. I've never seen that before when there was actually a goaltender in goal. Nalimov apparently thought the puck was going wide of the net. A lackluster game by both teams, but Russia did show a little skill that they didn't show in their first meeting with Germany. All in all, for us Russian fans, it is merciful to have the tournament over.
