Germany, Slovenia Look To Bounce Back

Slovenia and Germany both come into their showdown in the 5th-8th classification round wanting nothing more than to forget their last game. Slovenia saw defending champions Greece use a 14-1 run over the final 2:30 in an absolutly heart-wrenching quarter-final loss and Germany were blown out by Spain, trailing by 37 points in the fourth period.

Regardless of their last results, Saturday's game has loads of meaning - namely a berth in the pre-Olympic tournament for the winner. The losers have one more chance to reach the pre-Olympic event in the game for seventh place.
