Head Coach “Ak Barsa” Oleg Znarok after being defeated by CSKA summed up the game and told how his side were affected by the striker’s return Alexandra Radulova .
On Tuesday, Ak Bars lost to CSKA in the KHL Fonbet Championship home game (2:3). Kazan opened the scoring late in the first half, but couldn’t hold on to the lead.
“It’s a shame, of course, that we gave away such a game,” Znarok said. “The team was determined to win.
Your team played very well in the first half. Can’t you play the whole game like that?
— Everything develops because of individual mistakes. You admit one thing – and trouble is piling up like someone.
– Ak Bars has always been considered a top club. But now you and CSKA are on different floors in the KHL?
“I wouldn’t say that.
– Earlier, you already talked about unnecessary deletions. CSKA punished you twice with fines. Are there consequences for violators?
– Effects…. Yes, deletions are bad. We were hoping to play more often today. You can’t say everything at a press conference. But it’s hard to win games with a majority.
– During the matches with Salavat and CSKA, your team conceded several goals for a penny. Why does this happen?
— Individual errors. We all understand them.
– Why didn’t Radulov, back in the team, go out on the ice with his usual partners – Semenov and Galiyev? After all, he became the team’s top scorer in the top three with them.
– Because this link played well against Neftekhimik without him. Now I can’t say for sure if Radulov will come back to him. It takes time to think. You can’t tell with a hot head.
— How satisfied are you with Radulov today? And does his statements in the press interfere with the team?
– What happened to Radulov does not bother anyone in Ak Bars. It’s a moment of work that can happen in any club. Today Sasha played well, I liked it.
– Do you mind that the team left the playoff zone today?
– Not. So much more to play!
Radulov was removed from Ak Bars before the last match with Neftekhimik due to disagreements with Znark’s assistants in the coaching staff. Before the meeting with CSKA, the club’s management decided to return the striker to the team.
For Ak Bars, the loss was the 10th out of the last 12 matches, the team takes 9th place in the Eastern Conference.
