Český národní tým končí podruhé za sebou na světovém šampionátu ve čtvrtfinále. S nepovedeným turnajem končí i éra Radima Rulíka na střídačce hokejistů. A končí s rozpaky. Nejen trenérovy kroky, ale i celý výkon národního týmu na mistrovství světa rozebírají v novém díle podcastu Za mantinelem na Sport.cz šéfredaktor Martin Kézr a redaktor Jan Škvor.
They left the ice with the same feeling as at the two previous major tournaments. Disappointed, sad. Another quarterfinal, another end. Czech hockey players will not play for medals at the World Championship this time either. They wasted the chance to reverse the unsuccessful Swiss championship. They imitated the performances from the group, they failed to throw Finland off balance. After a 1:4 defeat, they are going home. Deservedly.
Zurich - After being eliminated in the quarterfinals of the World Championship by Finland (1:4), coach Radim Rulík admitted that he was worried before the championship that the Czech hockey players would even make it to the playoffs. He said this in an interview with journalists.
A clash of two hockey worlds. A clash of speed, intensity and ferocity with the world of passivity, mistakes in passing and helplessness. The first was the Finns, the second – unfortunately – the Czechs. The team of the departing coach Radim Rulík did not make it to the quarterfinals of the world championship at all, the gap between the two teams was seriously huge in places.
