On May 12, the senior Russian national team will play Switzerland in the fifth 2018 World Championship group stage match.
Our players made a fantastic start to the competition, defeating France and Austria by a score of 7:0 before a 6:0 win over Belarus. However, in the fourth match against the Czech Republic, the Russians dropped a disappointing 3:4 defeat in overtime.
