Zhamnov with the words “not very impressive” appreciated the match of Russian hockey players

Hockey players of the Russian national team did not complete any of the tasks set in the victorious match with the Danes at the Olympics, said the team's head coach Alexei Zhamnov, quoted by Match TV.

“In general, the impression is not very good. I did not like the fact that the task that was given to the guys before the game was not completed to the end. They were asked to endure, win neutral pucks, fight for them and concentrate more on keeping the puck in the attacking zone. We knew that the Danish team is viscous, rather tough, mobile. We can say that nothing has been completed to the end, ”Zhamnov said.

Russian hockey players defeated the Danish team at the Olympics with a score of 2:0 and take first place in group B with six points.

Russian hockey players won the second consecutive victory at the Olympics 2022 Olympics According to Zhamnov, the team is faced with the task of controlling the puck more and being in the attacking zone.

“But when there is no control, you simply cannot be on the attack. You constantly go counterattacks on our goal. This is all - game discipline, the fulfillment of a game task. It all comes down to many nuances. If the players do everything and there is a result, you spend more time on the attack, and not on the defensive. We talked with the guys, everyone understands everything perfectly. We have 24 hours before the match against the Czechs to draw the right conclusions and change everything for the better," Zhamnov said.

In the next meeting at the tournament, the Russians on February 12 will play with the Czechs.
