Hockey|The penalty awarded to Konsta Helenius in overtime spoke volumes.
The lions The World Cup tournament ended on Thursday in the quarterfinals, when Sweden defeated Finland in extra time with a score of 2–1.
Joel Eriksson Ek directed by Victor Hedman line delivery Emil Larmin past. The hit started a wild Swedish party on the ice in Ostrava.
The situation, which eventually led to the Swedes’ winning goal, heated up the emotions of the Finns.
SM league sensation Konsta Helenius, 18, was ordered to the ice shelf for hooking. Helenius’s ice came looking like a horse. He tried to block the Swedish player in the goal area, but the contact with the Swede’s lower hand was minimal.
Viaplay’s newsroom Antti Mäkinen and Jussi Jokinen were in two stages, whether the situation should have led to a penalty.
MTV expert Olli Jokinen was of the opinion that jähy was a horse.
“Very doubtful. I think it’s a good lift. It didn’t go hand in hand, and it didn’t hook. A very questionable jähy”, Jokinen was surprised on MTV.
Kari Jalonen was on the same lines.
“He lifts the club, but not the hook. It’s a pretty tough sentence and it led to this result that came.”
Expert Sami Kapanen thought the verdict was right. He commented on the situation after the fight stopped on MTV.
Also Vice President of the International Ice Hockey Federation Kalervo Kummola roared about the refereeing of the match.
“Great game from Leijon. Sweden needed the help of the referees to bring down the reborn lions. A great game that was ruined by amateur referees from Latvia and the USA,” Kummola wrote on the messaging service in X.
The lost quarter-final remained Jukka Jalonen for the last time as the head coach of the Lions. Lions take over next Antti Pennanen.
