“We were clearly the better team in terms of play,” said Enzo Corvi, who made it 1-2 in the 57th minute. “We’ve done many things right, many shots on goal, but in the end it’s the result that counts.”
One of the reasons for the defeat for the Davos center was the power play, in which the Swiss, despite good chances, did not get anything that could be counted for eight minutes. “Your goalkeeper deserves credit and you blocked a lot of shots,” Corvi said in acknowledgment of the Czechs. “We were unlucky today, though.”
National coach Patrick Fischer also found words of praise for the Eastern Europeans: “The Czechs did a lot with very little, so it was against Finland (3:2). That speaks for itself”. Regarding the center section, which the Swiss clearly dominated with 17:1 shots, Fischer said: “We are good in the second third because then it is more difficult for the opponents to change. As a result, the Czechs they weren’t as compact as in the first and last group, which we took advantage of with our fast play. We fielded chance after chance, but their goalkeeper kept them in the game. What should I accuse the team of? There are matches like this”.
Fischer liked the first 20 minutes less: “We made some careless mistakes. Also, we had the puck under control before 0:1. » All this led to the annoying defeat. The Swiss are now in Freiburg with only one point after two games – they lost to the Swedes 2:3 after extra time on Thursday.
