Superb Petersson and Smarason show as Iceland take first main round win 20:00 SWEDISH COMEBACK TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE Sweden attempted a comeback but Norway were just too strong - they are still undefeated in this tournament. 19:10 SWEDEN STRUGGLING AGAINST NORWAY Sweden started out fairly strongly against Norway, but buoyed by a series of saves by Torbjoern Bergerud, the men in red have taken a 12:8 lead at half-time. 17:45 HUNGARY OVERCOME SLOVENIA Hungary came back in the second half against Slovenia and held on for a one-goal, 29:28 win. 16:55 SLOVENIA HEAD HUNGARY BY THREE Half-time in the second match of the day, and Slovenia lead Hungary by three goals. Slovenia look a little more comfortable but it's not over. 15:30 ICELAND WIN! After Iceland took an early lead and Portugal pegged it back, Iceland held on for a 28:25 win which keeps their semi-final hopes alive. 13:30 HERE’S HOW TO FOLLOW THE ACTION There are three main round matches ahead tonight and here’s how you can follow all the action:
