The plans of the Finnish team changed and the whole tournament is in danger.
Edmonton and in the Red Deer Youth World Cup, the coronavirus rotates almost uncontrollably.
Infections have been found in the U.S. and Czech teams, and two matches have been canceled. Finland had to face the Czech Republic late Wednesday, when one infection quarantined the entire Czech team.
The match was marked Finland’s 1–0 victory.
Coronavirus has also been close to the Finnish team. One positive result was found in the group of Young Lions that managed to pull their faces seriously.
“There was one incident, but it took an hour for it to become known that it was a false alarm. There have been false alarms here, ”the head coach of the Young Lions Antti Pennanen said by phone to HS. He admits that yes the case was a bit frightening.
Pennanen learned about the cancellation of the Czech match on Wednesday three hours before the start of the game.
“I was disappointed at first, but there is nothing to it. Then we started thinking about the next steps. ”
The nature of the match meeting scheduled for the morning changed dramatically as the game changed to practice and the gaze began to turn to the final Canada encounter, if it could be played.
“I told them that according to doctors, most of these infections are asymptomatic. In that sense, we are in a good health situation and there is no concern for that, ”Pennanen said.
Pennanen expressed the hope that a method would be introduced in the youth World Cup puck in which the infected person would be placed in isolation and the rest of the team could continue playing.
The entire tournament is in danger if the Russian World Cup team’s suspicion of a coronavirus sets the team aside for a long time. Russia would be the third team to be diagnosed with a corona infection, Iltalehti quoted Russian media as saying.
Awkward The best indication of the coronavirus situation is that the USA plays in a different city than Finland and the Czech Republic. And on top of all that, the Czech Republic lives in a different hotel than Finland, which has stayed at the Marriott next to Rogers Place.
“It’s not possible to control who it is [korona] will come. It’s hard. If there is one to come, it will come. If you start thinking about it, you have to think about it all the time. ”
“Hopefully some sensible solution will be found to get the games out.”
