SKA defender Andrei Pedan explained why in the first period of the KHL match with Metallurg Magnitogorsk, the opponents exchanged three goals.
Saturday S.K.A. defeated “Metallurgy” in the home game of the KHL Fonbet Championship – 4:3 (3:3, 0:0, 1:0).
– Metallurg is a fast and technical team, we gave them a chance to use their strong qualities at the start of the game, – said Pedan. But then they adapted and rebuilt. We started playing harder and tighter. So they turned the game around.
– How can you explain that the first period turned out to be so fun – six goals?
— The opponent lived up to expectations, they are a fast team. We gave them a chance for 2v1, 3v1 attacks. And then – individual skill, the players went out on the “nickle”. Then we fought back. Special thanks to the fans for their support. I think they liked the first half the most.
In this game, the Saint Petersburg Army team scored its 100th goal since the start of the season and became the first KHL team to achieve this milestone.
