Maybe the most interesting matches of these playoffs are played here, between Germany and Russia. sad to know that one of these strong teams won’t be able to make it to Denmark.
Trefilov came with a whole new team, with Volgograd trio Kochetova, Dmitrieva and Akopian, plus Sedoykina in the goal.This seemes to be a lucky move, since Kochetova scored 11 goals, meanwhile on German side everything seemed to be just struggeling. Jakob Vestergaard’s first official match was a fiasco. Let’s see next week what these teams can come with?
