Ben Clarke-Leach secured a nine-shot shutout as Great Britain dominated their 4-0 victory over Serbia at the men’s Under-18 World Championship Division II Group A in Poland.
GB went ahead when Max Maslak set-up Brynley Capps who saw his shot saved but Jack Clare buried the rebound (16:41).
It was 2-0 just 29 seconds later as Connor Lee fed Noah Kaariainen whose one-time shot from the blueline deflected past Filip Korenic.
Rhys Edwards waltzed into the offensive zone and saw his shot saved by Korenic, but Joe Tomalin was on hand to score on the rebound (31:53).
Capps wrapped the game up in the third period with a neat wraparound (48:57).
GB are straight back into action tomorrow against Romania.
