The Tampere-based Classic is no longer a winner from the floorball F-League men’s championship when it defeated KrP 4–3 in the fourth final at the Nokia Ice Rink. Classic leads the final series 3-1 when four wins are needed for the championship. Classic has won the previous five championships.

1027 spectators are about to see this Football 7-aside match Lauri Alkki shouted the home crowd with an opening match. However, the joy remained short, for Eemeli Salin leveled by force and just over a minute and a half later Ville Hietaranta took Classic to a 2-1 lead.

KrP, who is playing in the finals for the first time, started the third round with a pace of Morics Krumins leveled the game with a dream shot and a couple of minutes later Henri Johansson took the home team to a 3–2 lead.

However, Classic did not give up because Ville Lastikka tapped an accurate pull into the back corner after the attack area was interrupted. The most spectacular hit of the evening was seen at 53.18. Eemeli Salin took a long feed and fed it right behind his back To Sami Johanssonwhose shot sank into KrP ‘s goal.

Two long minutes

As many as nine of Classic’s current players have championships in 2016–19 and 2021. One of them is Eemeli Salin, who has put together a 1 + 1 powerhouse. He also got both of the Classic’s cools in the match, one of them coming in from 57.17 in a country-led match 4–3.

– It was a really long two minutes. Häähy came about, the guy had a vacancy and had to get everything in front, Salin admitted to STT.

The finish was for Salin, the father of three, 11th in the spring and 95th in his career. The entry point came to Sami Johansson’s winning goal.

– Now you just have to focus on the next game and don’t think about what’s going on in the world, there’s enough to think about at home. I have been working as a nurse in Uusikaupunki during the summer, but I have no opinion in that field now about what should be done, Salin said.

Versatile ball background

As a young man, Salin also played football and basketball. Football still attracts as a summer hobby.

– I have to ask From Juha (Stone grove) opinion on whether to play it, Salin referred to his coach, who will end his playing career next season after this spring.

If Classic wins gold, Kivilehto will rise Mikael Järven with the top nine championships as a man. Missed two matches due to Korona Samu Kuitunen did not yet promise a win on Friday.

– Now play one substitution at a time for the next match. It was hard to have a couple of matches on the sidelines when there were 2,600 matches below, the Classic coach said.

Commander of the KrP Jarmo Härmä assured the experience of the former poker professional that the chances of winning on Friday are good.

– It’s a great situation to show your skills. When superiority is restored, so good comes, Härmä lowered the probabilities.
