Former defender of the Russian national team Dmitry Sennikov shared his expectations from the debut Alessandra Ovečkina in football. The hockey player “Washington Capitals” has signed a contract with “Dynamo” of Moscow for a match: a friendly match with “Amkal”.
Well, that’s interesting. Because Ovechkin is a Dynamo fan and a student of him, so why not? Why not organize a friendly on vacation? I think it’s interesting for the fans. Of course, the most important thing here is that you don’t get injured, that you run with caution. Because after all this is our star and we are worried about him.
Is there a risk of injury? Everything is possible. It is passion, it is a game. When you enter the game, you no longer control yourself. You can get so trapped in there that you give a kind of sharp gasp. Skating is a bit different from running. But it is clear that they are training, that all hockey players are playing football. But there is a big field. However, the idea itself is great.
Will Ovechkin hit the opponent’s door as often as in hockey? Well, the places are of different sizes. Sure, I would like him to run towards the opponent’s goal, but I think it will be more difficult than in hockey. But I think Ovechkin should score in this match.
