First part of the job done for England. In a wildly fluctuating game against Spain, they roared ahead, leading 4-0 after 2 ends, then were pegged back immediately and fell behind 4-8 after 4 ends. If that wasn't wild enough, they made a remarkable recovery themselves, scoring 9 shots in the final 4 ends to win by 13-8!
Now onto the afternoon game, when they play Estonia in a crunch game. Estonia are out of the running but can play an important part in England's fortunes. Finland and Poland are also out of it, as although they can catch England on wins, they have both lost to the English curlers in the earlier games. The real and present danger are Switzerland who play Poland in the final session. Basically, England have to equal or better Switzerland's result in order to qualify.
