Errors caused by lack of concentration / day

Latvia conceded to Austria with 1: 6 (0: 1, 1: 2, 0: 3).

Eduards Tralmaks scored in the Latvian national team.

« I think mistakes were caused by a lack of concentration, » says Ravinsky.

« Maybe someone also writes that Austrians have to win, but it is not a weak opponent, » the attacker emphasizes. « In this championship, the Austrians are distinguished by being a little goal, but playing high quality hockey themselves. The psychological mood this time was deceived. »

He explains that the Austrians showed themselves at the best.

« They had fewer shots, but the quality was better. When they threw, the puck flew into the goal, » says Ravinsky.

He also thinks he was played deep in the attack zone, which gave the Austrians a good counter -attack.

« Maybe we played deep in the attack zone, as the Austrians stood out with pucks in the neutral zone, on the blue line and counterattacked three to two or two against one guard, » Ravinsky points out. « That was one of the main reasons we lost. »

Ravinsky’s World Championship in Stockholm was his first career in his player’s career, and he expresses his gratitude to coaches and teammates for his team reception and support.

« It was important. I was given a lot and I am grateful for all the opportunities, » says the attacker.
