After a rest day yesterday, all teams were raring to get back onto the pitch for the final day of matches. Italy vs Ukraine was the first early morning match and had everyone on the edge of their seats. Quarter 1 saw both teams score and 1-1 is how it remained until the last quarter. Italy scored to take it to 2-1, but then Ukraine executed an equalizing penalty stroke. Italy decided at this point to remove their keeper and play with 11 outfield players. After a quick attack, Ukraine took the lead at 3-2. Italy chased back to create 3-3. In the last minute of the match, Italy secured a short corner which turned into a penalty stroke and subsequently a goal. The game finished 4-3 for Italy.
