- The hockey tournament has become a real decoration of the 2nd Winter Children of Asia International Sports Games. In all matches, the struggle until the last seconds. Evidence of the level of the teams was the fact that the national teams of Kazakhstan and Belarus could not get into the playoffs. In the final, we saw open hockey, where opponents fought for every meter of the court, we saw the excellent game of goalkeepers. The Ural Federal District is a little more fortunate, it is a sport. Thanks to the guys for their skill, for a real holiday for the fans, said Mr. Vladimir Maksimov.
