Once again Scotland were outplayed by their immediate opponents in their 7-11 loss against Switzerland. The loss of 3 shots in the 2nd end and 4 shots in the 5th end proved much too difficult to overturn in a game at this level.
In the second game it was the same statistics again with no Scottish player getting the better of their opponent. The difference in this game is that they played the big shots well, eventually beating Norway 8-4, but it did take a last stone take-out to score 3 shots and make the score look comfortable.
Scotland are tied with Canada and China at the top of the table with 6 wins each, followed by Czechia, Sweden and Switzerland on 5 wins. Germany and Norway are on 4 wins and still have a great chance to qualify. With 4 games to go, Italy, Japan and United States on 3 wins have an outside chance, but no more than that.
Tomorrow's games are against Sweden at 4pm (on the Beeb Sports website and i-Player) and United States at 9pm.
