Finland vs. OAR Women's Hockey Bronze Medal Game Live Stream Schedule

Rory MarsdenFeb 20, 2018

Neither Finland nor the Russian team really got close to making the final of the women's ice hockey tournament at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

Both teams were trounced 5-0 in the semi-finals, Finland by the United States and the Olympic Athletes from Russia by Canada.

However, both teams still have a chance of a medal, and they will face off in the bronze-medal match at 4:40 p.m. local time (7:40 a.m. GMT, 2:40 a.m. ET) on Wednesday, February 21.

Finland and OAR have already met in the women's ice hockey tournament at Pyeongchang 2018.

They faced each other in Group A, and Finland came out on top, winning 5-1.

The Russian team endured a chastening few matches in the group as they were also thrashed 5-0 by Team USA and Canada.

They managed to beat Switzerland 6-2 in the quarter-finals to prove their credentials, but the Russian outfit look to be clearly the fourth best team in the competition.

Finland thrashed Sweden 7-2 in the last eight to go through to the semis and ensure they had a chance to fight for a medal.

It will not be gold, but the Finnish team should be heavy favourites to take bronze.

They will take confidence from the fact they outplayed OAR in Group A and, should they take an early lead, it would be a surprise if Finland are overhauled.

The Russian team will likely need a fast start. If they go ahead early, it would give them a major boost, which could potentially see them to a surprise medal.

However, Finland are strong favourites to claim the victory given the balance of the tournament so far in Pyeongchang.
