TODAY LIVE | Kaldvee and Lill meet the Canadian pair in the evening match
Estonian curlers Marie Kaldvee and Harri Lill are set to compete against Canada's Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant in a live broadcast from the Winter Olympics.
This evening at 20:00, ETV2 and ERR's sports portal will broadcast live from the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, featuring the curling duo of Marie Kaldvee and Harri Lill as they face off against the Canadian pair Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant. The commentary will be provided by Aet SΓΌvari and Karl Kukner, with reporting by Ivar Lepik. This match comes on the heels of a challenging encounter for Kaldvee and Lill, who faced Norwayβs Kristin Skaslien and Magnus Nedregotten on Saturday, where they unfortunately sustained their fourth loss in the competition.
In their previous match against the Norwegian duo, Kaldvee and Lill started off on a rocky note, conceding an early lead. Despite having opportunities to score, including a missed chance that left them trailing 2-0, the Estonian pair managed to recover partially by capitalizing on a mistake made by the Norwegian team, briefly tying the game at 3-3. However, their attempts to gain further advantage were hampered by strategic plays from their opponents that utilized power play advantages to secure critical points.
As Kaldvee and Lill prepare for their encounter with the Canadian duo, they are under significant pressure to perform well and redeem their previous losses. The live coverage of their match signifies not only the importance of this event in the context of the Olympics but also highlights the growing interest in curling as a sport in Estonia, illustrated by the dedicated broadcasting effort by ERR. With high hopes resting on their shoulders, the Estonian curlers look to turn their fortunes around against a formidable Canadian team during this evening's match.
