Russian U18 junior national team forward Ivan Ryabkin told that it was hockey players, not coaches, who were to blame for the defeat of the Belarus U20 youth team at the League of Betting Future Cup tournament in St. Petersburg.
On Friday, the Russian team was beaten by the Belarusians. The match in Yubileiny ended with a score of 5:2 in favor of the opponents.
— Good match, in attack. There were moments that needed to be implemented. We met a week before the tournament. I can’t say we had time to play fully. The technical staff does everything for us, advises, guides. It’s our fault we lost.
Thanks to my partners for helping me score a goal. We actually moved the opponent, but we just had no luck somewhere. Any goals for the tournament? There is always only one task: to win,” Ryabkin told .
From November 3 to 6, the “Future Betting League Cup” tournament is taking place in St. Petersburg; you can watch broadcasts of matches on the TV channels of the Match holding company, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox. ru.
