The last application of the Latvian hockey team at the World Cup is Tumanov / Day
As a result, the application currently has a maximum of 25 players – three goalkeepers, eight guards and 14 attackers.
Of the players who went to Sweden with the team, striker Felix Gavars remained outside the application.
So far, the Latvian team has played six games in the World Championship, which defeated the French national team with a 4: 1 loss to the Canadians, with a 5: 2 win over Slovenia, lost to Sweden by 0: 6, with a 1: 2 win over Finland’s superiority and beat Slovakia by 5: 1. Tomorrow at 1:20 pm, the Latvian team will meet the Austrians in the final match of the group and will be in the quarterfinals at least in the tie in regular time.
In the second group, Herning plays in Denmark, Czech, German, USA, Kazakhstan, Norway, Switzerland and Hungary.
The 16 teams start in the tournament are divided into two groups, with eight teams each, which guarantees seven games for each team. The top four teams in each group will continue their fight for medals in the quarterfinals, but the weakest teams in both groups will leave the strongest division, and will be replaced by Britain and Italy next year.
