Finland didn’t have some role in this match as Russia controlled the course of the game almost whole time. 

What we could say more about the match. Simply, there is a huge quality difference between two teams. But, maybe Finnish team could give more resistance. Obviously, they are not in shape.

Maxim Mikhaylov was the man who scored the highest number of points – 15. Egor Kliuka added seven points, while on the other side Ojansivu had double digits – 11 points.

It is interesting that every player of Russia entered the court during this game.
