“We weren’t fully prepared.” The Kazakhstan national team explained itself after the 2:14 defeat at the 2025 World Cup – Hockey
Two goals were thrown into the opponent's goal, one of which was scored by Alexander Kim. The forward, in an interview with the republican Internet portal Sports.kz, shared his opinion about the last game:
– I don’t know at what moment everything fell apart, but I think we weren’t fully ready for the game, there were many chances, we could have scored, but somewhere something didn’t work out and there was a big failure in defense, so we need to work on everyone moments.
— Is it psychologically difficult for the team now?
– I think, no matter how we played these two games, now we need to think about the next game with Slovakia. Then with Switzerland, the focus should only be on the remaining matches.
— Was there a strong desire for goal and you managed to score today?
– I always want to score, there was a good moment and I managed to shoot well, I had time and scored.
— We played the third period well…
