Euro Hockey Challenge. Slovakia - Russia. Game two

Today, the senior Russian national team will play their second Euro Hockey Challenge fixture against Slovakia away.

The first match took place on Thursday, and our players came out on top with a thumping 6:1 win in Kosice. Igor Shestyorkin was in net for that game, and he became the first goaltender to debut in the Euro Hockey Challenge and take a shutout at the same time. Maxim Shalunov, Vyacheslav Voynov and Maxim Karpov also scored their opening goals for the national team.

Immediately after winning in Kosice, the team left for Poprad. Instead of training on the ice today, the coaching staff opted to hold a work-out outside.

The Slovakia - Russia match will begin at 16.30 Moscow time in Poprad, Slovakia. Match-Sport will broadcast the game live, and you can follow events by subscribing to our official Twitter account.
