The head coach of the Russian national hockey team compared the team to a submarine

The result of the Russian national team at the Beijing Olympics will depend on each hockey player. The head coach of the national team Alexei Zhamnov told TASS about this.

In his opinion, players should be sensitive to their role in the team, which may differ from their status in the club. “It’s like on a submarine – you can’t jump off it, it floats on a combat mission. Either we win, or we perish together, “- such a comparison was made by the expert.

On October 18, Zhamnov assessed the prospects of the Russian team at the Games in Beijing. In his opinion, the Russians have a chance to compete for gold.

Earlier on the same day, the composition of the coaching staff of the Russian national team was announced. Zhamnov’s assistants were Evgeny Nabokov, Sergei Fedorov, Sergei Gonchar and Alexei Kudashov.

The Beijing Olympics will take place in February 2022. The Russian national team in the group stage will meet with Switzerland, Denmark and the Czech Republic.
