Slovaks decimate GB, open Group A with huge win

28. 6. 2018 | David Sokol
The first game of Group A of U16 boys´ tournament was a meeting between Slovakia and Great Britain. The Slovaks got into the lead at the game´s very beginning, as it took just two minutes for them to score. In the first period they took advantage of their great offence and built up an impressive four-goal lead. They stayed with their offensive play throughout the game and, although there were some fisticuffs on the floor, they decimated Team GB 14-0.
 

Reactions

Coach of Slovakia: The first game of the tournament was not easy. We did not get the start we wanted, and the team was a bit scared when Britain attacked. But finally, the goals came. As far as games go, it was not a huge challenge, but it also was not the easiest.

Coach of Great Britain: It was a tough match, but that is what we expected. I think the guys could not have done anything better than they did, so we are really proud of them today.
