Hockey Noora Rädy’s absence from Beijing confirmed, Anni Keisala’s number one goalkeeper for the women’s puck team

Head coach Mustonen has a special report on the matter.

Women the hockey Olympic team for the Beijing Games is ready. The biggest fuss was already in advance that no goalkeeper Noora Räty not involved.

“The choice of the first goalkeeper was unanimous. He was Anni Keisala. This choice was a matter of course, ”said the head coach Pasi Mustonen.

Mustonen described Rädy’s situation so that this would be a second guard if the opportunity arose. Now Räty will be the backup guard.

“Ability to play and role suitability,” Mustonen said, emphasizing Keisala’s role in the team.

Mustonen said that Keisala had shown his skills and level in the World Championships, where Räty did not play.

“Keisala was there and took his opportunity.”

Special is that Räty is second in Mustonen’s ranking but is still not involved. The explanation sounded a little strange.

“Let’s see the evolution of women’s hockey, and no one has free tickets to the team anymore.”

Mustonen assesses the attack as follows: “More mobile than in previous Olympics. You can win a medal by defending, but not gold without attacking. ”

One of the players carrying the attack is young Elisa Holopainen.

“When I graduated from high school, it was clear that I would take a gap year and focus on the Olympics,” Holopainen said.

Mustonen said defense has been sought to play a role. The leading players are experienced Jenni Hiirikoski and Ronja Savolainen.

“I like to lead by example. Over and Underpower have been part of my role, and I try to support attacks with a good offensive game, ”said Hiirikoski

Sanni Rantala is the only one-time first in the team.
