The hockey player of the Ukrainian national team spoke about the conditions under which preparations are being made for the World Championship in Division 1B.
Preparations for the IIHF World Championship in Division 1B were very difficult, as the team did not go out on the ice for a month before training camp. Felix Morozov, forward of the national team, spoke about it in an interview with FHU.
Now, after receiving permission to leave, hockey players hold training camps in Hungary, where there are good conditions for training. However, according to the attacker, the war unleashed by the Putin regime still leaves a mark on preparation.
“Of course, we all keep in touch with our relatives, we follow the field of information at home with pain in our hearts, we respond with emotion to the genocide and brutality of the Russian army, but in during training we abstract and fully focus on the training process.
The parents certainly stayed at home in Kharkov, the father, to the best of his ability, helping to volunteer. And the girl with her mother moved to Transcarpathia. It’s safer there. “
In addition, Morozov spoke about the positive aspects of the war. According to him, unity in the face of a common enemy has helped to forget the differences in Ukrainian hockey, and now the team is preparing its strongest lineup.
“Sitting at home, I could not be as useful as, say, on the ice. So I responded with joy to the news of the World Championship. Over time, contacted our Federation, we discussed the situation and came to the conclusion that it is now more important for Ukrainian hockey and the national team to unite in a single whole and defend the honor in the international arena, rather than evoke the past.
It’s a great honor for me, like any athlete, to play for the nation’s premier team. In my opinion, every member of the team is proud of the fact that he is given a unique opportunity to prepare for the 2022 World Cup as part of the national team of Ukraine, and we sincerely hope to perform as successfully as possible in the forum.
I just want to deliver words of support to my loved ones and to the entire Ukrainian people, who are suffering from the Russian aggression at this difficult time. Know that we will surely win this war. There is no other option. True, behind us, “Morozov said.
