After watching Finland's two games I can only hope they can keep up this positive trajectory. They were ghastly against Switzerland, and decent against Slovakia. They had their moments that looked really promising (especially the start to the game), and then they regressed right back into being total sh*t the next moment. It feels like it's all about confidence and momentum with this bunch...very unpredictable.
Next game is against Latvia iirc, and I gotta admit I've never been more scared to watch Finland face them as I am now, cuz Latvia has actually looked good this time out. They gave USA run for their money, and are also giving a proper challenge to Switzerland now...you know, the team that just beat us...
That being said, I'm relatively confident that if the team can keep learning from their mistakes and become better after each game, I think we can haul those much needed points home. The most important thing is to keep up the upward, positive trajectory, at least result wise.
If we can manage that, maybe Finland's gonna be the Argentina of this tournament. That's something I'm certainly wishing for lol.
