Metti working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Junttila doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Metti is tightening it up a little... Junttila has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight!
