The Czech hockey players will play with the young Russians for the overall championship at the Karjala tournament from 12:30 in Helsinki. The Russians sent a team of players under the age of 20 to the tournament, and Czech coach Filip Pešán, despite criticism of this step, sends all ten juniors he brought to Helsinki to the fight. You can watch the match live on the ČT Sport channel, our website Sport.cz, as usual, offers an extensive online broadcast.

Seven out of ten juniors are making their debut in the senior national team. He has already been attacked by Jan Myšák, Jaromír Pytlík and Pavel Novák in previous matches against the Swedes and Finns. Myšák, the Czech number one in the NHL draft, played the whole match with Sweden, Pytlík replaced him in the line-up against Finland, and on Saturday Novák also got on one ice shift.
Today, the premiere start awaits goalkeeper Lukáš Pařík, defender David Jiříček, Šimon Kubíček, Stanislav Svozil and forwarders Filip Koffer, Adam Raška and Michal Teplý.

Czech players strive for the overall triumph of the tournament. A two-point victory would be enough for him. On Thursday, the Czechs dealt with the Swedes 3: 1, on Saturday Dominik Hrachovina decorated his debut in the goal of the national team with a catchy zero against Finland and Nestrašil and Ordoš took care of two goals.
Young Russians show that there are definitely no “sharpeners”. In the first match, the Finns crossed 6: 2 and defeated the Swedes 2: 1 after the raids. So today, Czech players will definitely not have it easy.
