The coaches of HK Dukla Ingem Michalovce hockey players did not have to specifically motivate the players for the 49th round of the Tipos extra league against HC Košice. This was stated by assistant head coach Kasper Vuorinen after the 3: 1 victory. His Finnish compatriot and Košice counterpart Kalle Kaskinen remarked that the spectators lacked an interesting match.
For the Michalovce players, it was the third victory in a row that moved them to the 3rd place ahead of Nitra. They defeated the Košice team for the third time in the season after turning the score from 0: 1 to 3: 1 in the 3rd period. “We don’t need special motivation for these matches. All players were set up correctly. Košice played better in the first period, they had the upper hand and were able to keep the puck in the offensive zone.
In the first break, we therefore went through the basics, and in the second and third periods, we improved our games. Košice is always a tough opponent and even today they confirmed it. Unfortunately, the match was again missing from the spectators. Both teams were good enough to win today. ” poznamenal Mountain.
The fifth match of the season was also about one goal. Three of them ended up with the closest difference and in the other two the winning team sealed the score with a goal into an empty net. The people of Košice in Michalovce did not follow up on three victories in a row and are still in 5th place in the table.
“Our matches with Michalovce are always one goal away. It was the same today. We started well, but then we made stupid mistakes and equally stupid exclusions. Michalovce were better in the third period, so they won.” said Kaskinen.
