Czech Republic vs. Finland 0:0 LIVE: We vote for the first match of the World Cup in hockey. The Czechs press, but the goal is disallowed. The match goes into overtime

Again after a year, the main event of the European hockey world is here. The 2024 World Ice Hockey Championship hosted by Prague and Ostrava. The national team under the leadership of coach Radim Rulík is waiting for the first match, and it will immediately be the favored Finland, which many see as the winner of the entire tournament. While the national team did not shine in the preparation, the Nordic hockey players managed almost everything and are the clear favorites today. At least the Czechs go into the match with a new “goal song”, i.e. a song that plays after a goal has been scored. This is the song Hoja hoj from the musical Noc na Karlštejně. How many times will we hear it? The match is commented live from the fan zone directly in front of the Prague hall by Martin Bartkovský.
