ZOH 2022: Reactions of players and assistant coach to defeat with Finland: The whole of Slovakia must be proud – ŠPORT.sk

Unfortunately, this is how it goes, the Finns have often been in a situation where they played a level match and then lost. This is the fate of the team that fights among the best. Sometimes it doesn’t work out, other times it does. The Finns played exactly as these matches are played, without panic, without mistakes, without exclusion, they did not need 20 burnt chances to score. They didn’t allow ours to score and there is nothing to do without a goal. But I believe that, unlike the Swedes or Russians, for us, seeing medals will be enough motivation and defeat is worth it. After all, we see in the guys from Vancouver that the wasted bronze is still scurrying and they would like to turn back time. But no matter what happens, as I was initially disappointed with the loss to the Finns, now I’m “smacking”.
