Team Retornaz kept the Canadians at bay for half the match before giving up and taking the second defeat of the tournament. Too strong opponents, but now the possibility of straightening the course with two decidedly more affordable nations.

Second defeat at the World Cup in Las Vegas for Italy, who in the second half paid a few too many inaccuracies against Canada, the only team still undefeated in the group stage. In the third end Retornaz with four stones at home and the last available shot is not tempted by an unlikely double fail by 5, preferring to mark the point of 2 all. From there, however, the maple leaf national team began to take control of the match by building small advantages with the front end. In particular, Gonin misses the speed of a few guards too many forcing the Azzurri to chase their opponents. With 2 points in the fifth you go 5-4 below the interval, before giving up on 10-4 on the eighth hand. From today it is essential to return to level up to aim for the playoffs. At 6 pm challenge against the Netherlands and at 11 pm Denmark occupy the bottom two positions of the standings.
