Ak Bars head coach Oleg Znarok, answering a question from a correspondent, said he was confident that despite the loss to Siberia, Kazan is gradually improving their game.
On Monday, Ak Bars lost to Sibir in Fonbet’s away match in the KHL Championship (2:4). Kazan took a 2-0 first-half lead but couldn’t hold on.
“We played well, we spent a lot of time in attack,” Znarok said. But they only scored two goals. There were not enough shots, especially in the second period, when we imposed on the opponent. Then they made mistakes, so they lost. Before that, there were difficult matches with SKA and Omsk, they let a lot of emotions pass.
– Is Alexander Radulov’s energy today to the detriment?
Let’s not comment on it.
Did the elimination at the end of the first period break your game? It is not entirely clear how it happened that after a mass fight, three players from Ak Bars and only one player from Sibir ended up in the penalty area. The elimination of Radulov, which dragged one of the opponents away, is particularly incomprehensible.
– I have my own opinion on this episode, but I will not express it.
– I didn’t like the second and fourth goals against Ak Bars. You gave your rivals too much willpower in these episodes at your doorstep. Maybe you should simplify the game as much as possible and remove such errors from it?
– We build everything, as they say, “from the stove” now. Something works, something doesn’t. But individual mistakes lead to such things.
– Your teams, both at club and national team level, have always been successful, becoming a strong fist. When will this fist finally clench in Ak Bars?
“We still have a long way to go. Ak Bars is playing better and better every day. The team is also getting stronger with every game. I think everything will be fine.
— Explain why Alexander Burmistrov left the team and returned to Kazan?
– This question is not for me, but for the management.
Ak Bars currently sits seventh in the Western Conference. Today the Kazan club terminated the contract with defender Maxim Chudinov. Also, striker Alexander Burmistrov was sent to Kazan from the field.
