Katarina Jobst-Smith scored the decisive goal in the second period, following an early goal by Jobst-Smith in the 7:34 mark. Austria had Selma Luggin sent off with just 1:39 remaining in the final period, allowing Jobst-Smith to score her second goal from an empty net. Germany will now face the United States in the next round.\n\nIn Group B, Denmark fought back from a two-goal deficit to defeat Japan 3-2 after a penalty shootout.
