President of the Russian Ice Hockey Federation Vladislav Tretyak says that the level of play of the national team Belarus grows after the games with the Russians.
On Sunday, the Russian junior ice hockey team (no more than 18 years old) was beaten by the Belarusian team in the opening match at the Siberia Arena stadium.
— Junior teams have been chosen to open the Siberia Arena, because now everyone is preparing for the KHL championship. The juniors make a lot of mistakes, it’s interesting. We have very good relations with Belarusians, there are many joint programs – this game is one of them. These are international matches, which is always interesting.
Matches with the Belarusians are getting boring? They get better and better every time! We have Kazakhstan and China among our rivals. In my opinion, it’s more difficult to play with someone at this level,” Sport24 Tretyak quotes.
