The coach of Slovak hockey players Craig Ramsay made several changes before the match against Russia in Riga and they worked out for him. Miloš Kelemen scored his first goal at the World Cup, Martin Bučko, Michal Ivan and Adrián Holešinský also praised him. They all deserved a valuable triumph 3: 1.
Holešinský’s coaches placed him in the second formation between Michal Krištof and Martin Pospíšil. “They’re both great players, it’s a shame I couldn’t help them anymore,” said Holešinský.
The 25-year-old attacker had health problems after arriving at the World Cup, and if it weren’t for them, he might have gotten a chance earlier. In preparation, it was one of the pleasant surprises.
“I trained a little, I could have given more in the match, but I believe it will be better in the next duels. We also decided whether I would start, we decided to go in. Unfortunately, now it’s no better but we’ll see how it turns out during the tournament. “

The young striker admitted that if someone predicted the start of the World Cup before the start of the season, he would laugh at him: “I’ve had it all over the season, things have been done fast. But I’m here and it’s something incredible. I’m enjoying it.”
Bučko also praised the match with Russia, the young defender was praised by the goalkeeper Július Hudáček. “It’s a great feeling. We played comfortably on the defensive, we didn’t let the Russians into chances, even if they had some. But what happened, Julo caught it. It’s an amazing feeling, I’m really enjoying it,” said Bucko.
In the defense, the 21-year-old quarterback started next to Captain Marek Ďalog. “We also played together in Pardubice, so I knew what it would be like. He’s a great guy even off the ice,” added Bučko.
