Ben Lake scored the decisive goal in overtime, rescuing the win for GB after surrendering a 3-1 lead and allowing Poland to equalize with just 47 seconds remaining in regulation time. Captain Jonathan Phillips, Cade Neilson, Liam Kirk, and Mike Hammond also found the back of the net for the home team.

GB’s next game will be against Lithuania on Tuesday. In other matches, Italy secured a comfortable 6-1 win over Korea, maintaining their perfect record, while Romania staged a comeback to defeat Lithuania 3-2 after initially trailing by two goals.
