Sakari Manninen, who decided on the Lion's Championship, took a stand on the modest extension of the World Cup final
Sakari Manninen is a man of great goals. At the World Championships, he won gold for Finland with his overtime goal, which was created by overpowering the Canadian network.

When looking for a solver for important matches, take Sakari Manninen to your team. A real man of big games has been marinated in the Pike Ahmohs.
In the spring 2019 World Championships, Manninen sank Sweden in the semi-finals with his extra-time goal. At the February Olympics, a 30-year-old striker was knocked out of Slovakia in the semi-finals.
And when the place was at its toughest against Canada in Sunday's final, Mr. Sakari Manninen was again the decider. And of course again in overtime.
In an interview with Yle Urheilun Jussi Saarinen, Mann was asked to describe the extra-time goal of the World Cup final. The scorer was Mikael Granlund .
- Mikael is a very good pitcher, Miro ( Heiskanen ) is good to move in it and "Härski" ( Teemu Hartikainen ) is in the goal, he has good compositions. "Mikke" got along well from it and was threatened with a shot, of course, they opened the line for me. There was a fairway from which I could shoot, I just tried to hit the puck, and it hit well.
- Always the gold medal from the World Championships is an amazing achievement, then as a specialty these home competitions and all the jumps. Over time and everything went according to the tastiest possible, Manninen glowed.
Manninen was asked if it was good to solve the World Cup gold by playing three against three.
- Yeah ... it's probably been said to be done by playing that goal. If you continued with five against five, you don’t know how long it would take. A harsh way, of course, but good that comes with playing and not going for "commas".
The three-on-three overtime also spoke a year ago, when Finland lost to Canada in the World Cup final. Even then, the solution was sought in an extension.
The world championship is second to Manninen. Olympic gold can also be found on his merit list.
Manninen was a key figure in the spring world championship team. He was the best scorer in Finland and 6 + 4 on the internal points exchange.
