Russian Hockey Players came to Sochi
Russian International Hockey Team came to Sochi to take part in the second stage of European Hockey Tournament which is called “The First Channel Cup”. The competition will last from 18th to 21st of December.

Yesterday Russian team played its first match against Finland and won with the final score 2:0. The game was shown live on the First Channel at 7 p.m. Kovalchuk from SKA St. Petersburg was chosen as captain.

Russian team also held training right before the match the same day. There are some problems with the starting line-up as several leading players will not be able to take part in the competition because of injuries.

Doctor of Russian hockey team shared his thoughts regarding such situation:

“We have lost three main forwards yesterday. We do hope this injury epidemic will be stopped in the nearest future. It has started in Minsk and lasts for some time already. However we are going to play in a very important tournament very soon. That is why every player will be vital for the team”.
