Alexei Chistyakov: "Our players are progressing"
- It's never nice to lose the key matches. However, I can't have any complaints with my players. They tried their best, but it wasn't enough today. Finland have a good, balanced team.
- Fourth place at the Olympic Games is an historic result. Can you praise the team?
- Yes, but you always want more. We had a chance, however we couldn't find that crucial goal in the final moments.
- Was it tough at these Olympic Games?
- Of course, we were in a group with Canada and the USA, the world's strongest teams. Our players are progressing though, they are proving that they're getting closer to the level of the leading countries.
- In these two years which you have been coaching the team, the progress is clear.
- I can't judge that.
