On Monday, the Finnish and Czech Republic U20 teams met at the Vierumäki Sports Institute in the south of Finland to prepare for the U20 season. While Jesse Ylönen wasn’t part of the team this time, Jesperi Kotkaniemi was centring the first line with Kaapo Kakko and Linus Nyman during Monday’s game. Kotkaniemi was also the quarterback on the Finnish first power-play unit, and just four minutes in, he got the chance to show his playmaking ability.
Above you’ll see that the accurate pass goes straight through the box and causes problems for the Czechs. However, it really should have been a better shot coming from the Finnish forward.
