It was visible in our players in the first period that they lacked confidence. In the second period, which decided the final result, three quick goals were scored and the players had to keep mentally up at 0: 4. We played the best hockey in the third period. We had a good movement, the players added a good job with the hockey stick and pushed harder into the end. Unfortunately, we failed to score, we did not use powerlifting. However, I have to praise the boys for their fighting spirit and well-managed weaknesses. ”Can anyone have a“ Shots of Martini ”? Ovečkin jokes with Fehérváry before the match:
