Russian hockey players lost the Finns in the Eurotour

Russian hockey players were defeated by the Finland team in the match of the Swedish stage of Eurotour, which started on Thursday a game of Helsinki.

The meeting at the Hartwall Arena ended with a score of 2: 1 (1: 0, 1: 0, 0: 1) in favor of the hosts, in which the pucks were thrown by Leo Komarov (7th minute) and Petri Contiol (37th). As part of Russians at the 59th, Nikolai Kulemin distinguished himself.

“In principle, I really liked the game,” said Oleg Znarok, head coach of the Russian national team after defeat. “They created a lot of assault moments. The implementation failed us a little. But we missed two goals in the minority. We scored the puck in the majority. The majority did not fully work out. And so about five by five, I think we dominated the second and third periods.”

In the next match, the Russians will play in Stockholm with the Czechs on May 3.
