After initial defeats with the Russians and the Swiss, the national team found itself in a precarious situation. He lost to the Swedes after forty minutes 0: 2, to the Danes in the forty-fifth minute 0: 1 and if he did not equal, for the first time in the history of the championships he would be missing in the elimination fights. “I hope it can be a bit of an advantage that we have been playing the playoffs in Riga since the third match. Hopefully there will be no panic, great nervousness and we will enter the match well, “reports the 31-year-old center.
He really wants the team against Suomi to start. In important clans at this year’s tournament, he usually caught up with the opponent’s shortage. “It simply came to our notice then. It worked out with the Swedes when we were pushed against the wall, but it is better to be on the other side, to go for victory from the beginning, “recalls Kovář.

“We won’t lie, the game hasn’t worked out yet, but I believe we’re getting into it and we have a big match on Thursday. Criticism doesn’t honestly help us much. The boys will read it, and they will be even more nervous, “says Kovář, who starts at his seventh World Cup, but is still missing the medal.
“We need to be focused at all times, not looking ahead, but pursuing our goal from the beginning,” he mutters.
