A general question:
Last night I was watching the highlights (the few that were shown) of the USA
- Finland game. During the closing, the announcers said that the US had now
clinched a bearth in the medal round.
I do not understand this statement. As I understand the way the tournament is
structured, the top two teams from pool A and the top two teams from pool B
end up in the medal round. The US is now 3-0 but could end up third in the
standings if the standings are determined by who beat who or even fourth if
the standings are determined by goals.
The way I figure it, the US could be 3-2. Sweden, Finland and possibly Italy
could all finish ahead of the US (depending on how standings are determined).
What is the real scoop?
