Austria also won its third game at the Ice Hockey World Cup on Tuesday. Head coach Roger Bader’s team beat Latvia 3-1 (0-0, 1-0, 2-1) in Zurich, and the next win in 60 minutes means they have the optimal score of nine points in Group A. The Austrians had previously beaten promoted teams Great Britain (5:2) and Hungary (4:2). And now the host Switzerland is waiting on Wednesday (4:20 p.m./live ORF 1). “It’s unbelievable how the boys stick together. Just a great group,” said captain Peter Schneider. (red)
