24.05.2019
Head coach of the senior Russian national team, Ilya Vorobyov, spoke about the upcoming IIHF World Championship:
- We have to see who Finland have beaten at this competition, they have been training for a long time and they understand their style of game. They managed to beat the USA, Canada and Sweden. We have studied our past matches against Finland. We need to play our game. Finland play solidly in defence, blocking pucks and waiting for counterattack opportunities. Andrei Vasilevskiy will be our starting goaltender.
