Vyacheslav Bykov, the Russian head coach who beat the Canadians in the world championship finals in 1993, commented on Sunday’s win. “It was tough, it surely was, but our guys held out just fine and the referees realised that you’ve got to keep your eyes wide open when you are judging a game like this…”
Russia staged a remarkable comeback in Sunday’s World Ice Hockey final against Canada to claim their first title in 15 years. The home team led for most of the match, but in a dramatic turnaround Russia levelled in the last period. Ilya Kovalchuk scored the winner in overtime, giving Russia a 5-4 victory.
