Minsk coachDynamo » Craig Woodcroft explained why his team lost to CSKA and praised the hockey players for their strong defense against a strong opponent.
On Thursday, Dynamo Minsk lost to CSKA in the away match of KHL Championship Fonbet (1:2). Ryan Spooner scored the Minskers’ only goal in the 58th minute of the game.
– There was a very equal match despite the fact that CSKA has four balanced strong ties, – Woodcroft told reporters. – I will note our play in defense. We hardly gave the army team the chance to create chances on our doorstep. But the majority worked for CSKA, but not for us. We will work on that. And from this game, you have to take the positive and move on.
– Most recently, the Minskers have scored five goals in every game. And in the last two matches, only one goal. What happened?
— We are still creating a lot of chances, all that is missing is the conversion, we cannot convert them into goals.
– Will Kozun appear in the team in the next matches?
– No, during this series away, he was out of the team. We lack Brandon’s experience and skill, his ability to move the puck.
The Minskers have already met the Moscow army team this season and won at home with a score of 3:1. The Belarusian team now sits ninth in the KHL Western Conference standings.
