Invited as the last team and 12th Team in the Championship, Vikings became 5th, after really pressured the Champions Brynäs in the Quarter Final – but as usual the Vikings was there it became game time … Know also the established Swedish Teams start to notice us… In the Tournament we meet Timrå, Örebro and Skarpnäck before the Brynäs Game – that we finally lost 3-5 after storming them in the first with 2-0, and it could have been more. To give you a glimpse of the atmosphere in game –
Fredrik Silverplatz in the middle of the first said ” Look at their bench more than 1000 National Team Games on their Players but the Leaders and Players are yelling and screaming it is panic there”….. Then In this game the referees totally broke down – but that is how it is to be an underdog….
