National ice hockey coach Harold Kreis expects a patience game in the sixth World Cup preliminary round game against Hungary. In addition, his team had to prepare for a tough initial phase against the outsider and relegation candidate. “They will certainly start hard,” said Kreis before the game and promised: “Just like us.”
After two recent victories against Denmark (6:4) and Austria (4:2), his team needs more points to still reach the minimum goal of quarter-finals at the World Cup in Finland and Latvia. However, his team will have to be patient, said Kreis: “If you look at the Hungarians in the last few games, they played very well for 40 minutes and then lost focus in the last third. I don’t know if it’s them power was or what.”
In addition, Toni Söderholm’s successor called for more penalties to be provoked. His team didn’t even have a majority against Austria. “You can provoke it a bit by playing fast in a small space,” Kreis said.
