The players of the Russian youth team need to improve their discipline. Such a condition for the successful performance of the team at the World Championship in Canada was named by the coach of the Russian national hockey team Alexei Zhamnov, quoted by TASS.
The specialist also urged not to make global conclusions one match at a time. “It is clear that the group is difficult, we have to get out of it. I think that the coaching staff will remove all these unnecessary things, ”Zhamnov said.
In the opening match of the World Youth Championship, the Russian team lost 3: 6 to Sweden. The Scandinavian team scored half of the goals in the majority.
In the next match, Russia on the night of Tuesday, December 28, will meet with Switzerland. In the group stage, the Russians will also face off against Slovakia and the United States. Of the five teams, four will advance to the playoffs.
