Srbija - Canada 7:3
Shots: 34-25
Face offs: 34-32
PP: 6/8 - 1/6
It is only HA where Srbija can beat Canada in hockey:) But anyway it is very important and beautiful victory of our U20!
Our high agression style and our impossible Power Play gave us 2 points and high score victory.
Almost everything was good for our U20 this evening so let me congratulate all of you and now we must not relax, but start to prepare for much more difficult game against most skillful team in our group - Izrael!
Ale, Srbija!
DON'T forget please to move out of Power Play and Penalty Killing lines all your 20 y.o. U20 players on FRIDAY to guarantee their energy at 100% level for Saturday!
We have extremly important game against Izrael so all our players must be 100% ready for it.
Izrael - Srbija
Most difficult and most decisive game for us, as for Izrael too.All our players are healthy with full energy and nice form - thanks alot, comrades, for your assistance in it!
Izrael also have excellent form, energy and healthy roster so it should be a real fight of two leaders for the first place after first round!

Ale,Srbija!
Izrael - Srbija 4:2
Shots: 31-25
Face offs: 33-25
PP: 3/6 - 1/6
Izrael's average AI in this game was 245 against our's 234. Their skill distribution is almost perfect so we had to play hack and slash agressiveness to stop their ultimative offense. We managed to do it at even strength but our PK line didnt manage to stop them and that's why we've lost this game.
Now we has no right to lose even a game before our next rendevoir with Izrael if we want to struggle for 1st place (I dont believe that any other team can stop this machine).
So, now we need to:
1) keep high form and full energy of our players before every U20 game
2) strictly follow my recommendations about our players skills trainings
If we will do it together we will have a chance to win all remaining games.
Ale, Srbija!

Srbija - Australia
All our players are healthy but 3 of them got lowered energy so I had to mix our lines to compenstae it.
Will be a difficult game because Australians won their last 3 games and our 1st round matchup with them was decided ony in shootout.

Srbija - Australia 8:5
Shots: 33-32
Face offs: 28-25
PP: 4/6 - 1/6
It was an equal game and our victory was very important because we can not rely on points loss by Izrael, as I've said before.
Though we were overskilled a bit by our opponents, we were excellent at Power plays and almost perfect in Penalty killing.
Our backup keeper also did his job well when it was needed.
next game is against Switzerland and we must play even better if we want to be vicotious.
Ale, Srbija!

Switzerland - Srbija
We have 2 main roster players injured but all others have 100% energy and good form in overall, so I hope our brave team can cope wtih difficulties.
We've lost to swisses in our 1st round game 4:5 so Im waiting for revenge and I hope that we can continue our chase for 1st place.

Switzerland - Srbija 6:5 SO
Shots: 31-38
Face offs: 23-21
PP: 1/9 - 2/7
We had to win this game because we we better in PP and even strength, but I've made a mistake ith starting keeper and his changing settings.
Now we not only need to win all the remaining games, but also we need 1 more loss of Izrael in any game to win promotion.
Honestly speaking, our chances are very slim, but we have to keep trying.
Ale, Srbija!

Srbija - Lithuania 4:3
Shots: 38-31
Face offs: 30-28
PP: 3/9 - 1/4
Our second victory over Lithuania helped us to keep some chances for 1st place. Now we need to beat Canada + Izrael must loose to Lithuania.
In any other case we can not promote even if we will win our last game against Izrael.
So we must use our last chance and hope that monstrous Izrael will loose points.
As for this game, we must thank our effective Power play line and our second goalkeeper, who didnt allow even a goal when our 1st lost his confidense.
Matchup against more skillful Lithuanians was nervous and difficult but we did what we had to do and now all we need is top energy and high form of our players for the next game.
Ale, Srbija!
Canada - Srbija
We have 1 main roster player lost (PP center) due to very low energy, all other players are ok-thanks alot to their managers.

Canada - Srbija 4:3
Shots: 25-42
Face offs: 34-24
PP: 0/3 - 0/4
We deserved victory in this game, but luck was not on our side. 3 goals from 42 shots in weak spot is all about that.
Our goal was to promote and, as I've said at the start of this World Cup, I'm retiring if it is not achieved.
We were close, but Srbija need more devoted managers, B-teams and NEW GM! Who can fight for his community, who can speak with Icko to gain B-teams for Srbija, who can lead his community for future goals,
Our (I tell our.not yours) community is dying because your GM is a fake person, not a Sebian at all.
I'm reallythankfull to all of you, who was cooperating with me an our U20 through these seasons and years of real life! Tears on my eyes.
Thank you brothers for this enjoable time!
I hope, that new coaches of U20 and senior NT Srbija will manage to achive good results and to lead Ha Srbiaj community for sunny future!
I'm not saying farewell, but now I need some break...
Good luck, dear comrades and brothers!
Србија и Русија су браћа заувек!
