In the latter part of the second period, Halaj charged towards Lopušanová, resulting in a collision that sent her flying through the air. Though her teammates quickly came to her aid, Halaj was given a two-minute minor penalty for the incident. Despite her valiant efforts to bounce back in the third period, Lopušanová was once again knocked down, and unfortunately sustained a serious wrist injury within the first five minutes of play.
#ICYMI Here's where the injury occurred.
After that blindside hit, I don't wanna say she was targeted this game, but it sure seemed like it to me.
