Franz Reindl, General secretary of the 2010 IIHF WM Organising Committee: “The results up to now exceed our expectations. The opening game was a fabulous start for the World Championship and the positive wave continued in Cologne and Mannheim. It’s too early to cheer but with this World Championship in Germany we’re heading in the right direction. The remaining games promise great sports and the already great enthusiasm of the fans is going to increase further.”
