Svátek mládežnického hokeje. Můžeme hrát s nejlepšími, těší Augustu i přes porážku

Minneapolis (od našeho zpravodaje) – Zkušený kouč věří, že pokud podobné výkony jeho svěřenci předvedou i v následujících dnech, mohou porazit každého.

Jaké pocity si odnášíte ze střetnutí se silnou Kanadou?

Samozřejmě jsme zklamaní z toho, že jsme nevyhráli, protože chceme vyhrát každé utkání. Ale po herní stránce to byl výborný vstup do turnaje. Řekl jsem klukům, ať mají hlavy nahoře. Protože pokud budeme hrát takhle, tak si v každém zápase dáme velkou šanci k tomu, abychom zvítězili.

Před zápasem jste mluvil o tom, že tento zápas vás pořádně otestuje a ukáže, jak na tom tým je. Co jste se tedy dozvěděl?

Mužstvo potvrdilo, že dokáže hrát i proti top týmům. A věřím, že do budoucna má i na to, aby je poráželo. Myslím, že jsme podali jsme velice dobrý výkon. Za mě to bylo výborné utkání, svátek mládežnického hokeje, protože to bylo neskutečně rychlé, na obou stranách spousta talentovaných hráčů. Zápas musel bavit.

Radost českých hokejistů do 20 let.

Trenéři obvykle nemají rádi bláznivé přestřelky. Trpěl jste, nebo jste si ji užíval?

Nemám rád slovo „užíval“, určitě jsem si to neužíval. Prostě jsme pracovali naplno, abychom hráčům dávali informace, které k tomu výkonu potřebují. Jak jsem říkal, za mě to byl velice kvalitní zápas dvou kvalitních týmů. Bohužel jsme odešli s prohrou, ale taky se vztyčenou hlavou.

V závěru jste ještě dokázali snížit, ale soupeř rychle potrestal hru bez brankáře. Šlo udělat něco jinak?

Bohužel jsme prohráli buly, dostali rychlý gól a bylo po power play. Měli jsme něco nachystaného, ale soupeř byl kvalitnější na buly. Takhle to v takových zápasech někdy je.

Jak je důležité, že jste po nevýrazné přípravě ukázali ofenzivní potenciál?

Věděli jsme, že máme sílu a kvalitní hráče do ofenzívy. Dát pět gólů Kanadě je samozřejmě hezké, ale byl by hezčí, kdybychom vyhráli a nedostali jich sedm.

Nicméně bylo znát, jaký respekt u Kanady máte, a jak moc vás chce porazit?

Věřím, že respekt máme u všech soupeřů, ale musíme si ho dál budovat. Respekt není samozřejmá věc. Každým výkonem tady na turnaji ho budeme ztrácet, nebo získávat. A já jsem přesvědčený, že tohle mužstvo má na to, aby ten respekt získávalo každým dalším utkáním.

Jakým způsobem přichystáte tým na zápas s papírově slabším Dánskem?

Musíme se na to dobře nachystat, protože tady jsou jen kvalitní soupeři. Jde o klíčové utkání turnaje, o postup do čtvrtfinále, takže potřebujeme, aby se hráči nachystali a zregenerovali. Uděláme zítra nějakou přípravu, pravděpodobně půjdeme na led. A jsem přesvědčený, že pokud podáme takový výkon jako s Kanadou, dáme si velkou k tomu, abychom vyhráli. Pokud ne, tak to bude těžké, protože je to další kvalitní soupeř. Čím déle to bude 0:0, tím větší to bude voda na jejich mlýn. Dánové hrají houževnatý hokej, dneska dohrávali souboje, jsou fyzičtí. My na to musíme být nachystaní tak, jako jsme byli připraveni na první duel.

Van Gerwen: I don’t care about two Lukes right now

Michael van Gerwen says he "does not care" about Luke Littler and Luke Humphries until he faces one of the two title favourites at the World Darts Championship.Littler and Humphries have been predicted by many to meet in the final next Saturday on January 3 but Van Gerwen is one of several potential stars who could deny that prospect. However, Van Gerwen would only face Humphries in the semi-finals and Littler in the final - a point he was keen to make clear. "I don't care about Luke and Luke at this moment. I just need to concentrate myself on my own performance. I can't meet them until the semi-finals and final anyway," he said.First, Van Gerwen must overcome German debutant Arno Merk in his third-round match on Sunday night, live on Sky Sports, before a potential fourth-round clash against […]

England win first Test in Australia in 15 years after thrilling two-dayer at MCG

England avoided any danger of an Ashes whitewash after ending an 18-Test and 15-year winless streak in Australia with a two-day victory in a remarkable match at Melbourne to cut their hosts' lead to 3-1 with one game to go.The wicket-fest on a spicy MCG pitch led to just the third two-day Ashes Test in 104 years - but the second in this series after Australia's rapid eight-wicket win in the opening fixture at Perth. England reached a target of 175 in 32.2 overs to win by four wickets with bizarre scenes including Brydon Carse promoted to No 3 - and charging down the pitch to the first ball he faced - after a swift opening stand of 51 from 42 balls between Zak Crawley (37 off 48) and Ben Duckett (34 off 26) in which Duckett was dropped by […]
