“Every error is noticed.” Riga “Dinamo” debutant Vītols for the first game KHL – Hockey – Apollo.lv – Sports

Riga “Dinamo” on Wednesday from the break returned with a “dry” loss 0: 3 (0: 0, 0: 2, 0: 3) against Minsk’s “Dynamo”. The goal of the Rigans in this game was guarded by 19-year-old Ēriks Vītols, who did not hide a surprise about the amount of throws made at his goal.

“There were 36 shots? I didn’t expect so much before the game. But I felt good – I was ready for the game. The team members always supported and helped,” the young goalkeeper was quoted as saying on the club’s website.

The goalkeeper also explained how he was able to overcome the excitement of his debut: “The feelings in the first game were really great. Sorry to lose, but I definitely enjoyed my first KHL game. It remains to stop the first puck and the excitement passes. that there will be more opportunities. “

Vītols emphasized that the most important difference between the Youth Hockey League (MHL), in which he represents the HK “Rīga” unit on a daily basis, and KHL is the speed and thinking of hockey players on the ice.

“Compared to MHL, the first thing that comes to mind is the wisdom of the players on the field. Every mistake is noticed, everything happens at a very high speed. You should not relax for a moment, because then the mistake will follow. And here the players are very masterful. The passes are accurate and are followed by a very strong throw, but I really enjoyed the match, “explains Vītols.

Riga “Dinamo” will play the next game on Friday, at 16 outing meeting with Chelyabinsk “Traktor”.
