CSKA head coach Sergei Fedorov explained the failure of the match with Dynamo Moscow by the fact that his team liked the attack, and the opponent caught him in counterattacks.
The Saturday CSKA ceded to Moscow “Dynamo” in the away match of the Fonbet KHL Championship (1:2 bul.)
“There are always interesting games between CSKA and Dynamo,” said Fedorov. — Today we scored first, but missed a few counter-attacks. The goalkeeper kept us in the game, but in the third period we played a bit openly. Although they warned the guys that Dynamo are a systemic team, they go on the attack very quickly so you have to be more careful in applying pressure. Too bad they didn’t score “4 against 3” in overtime. But the opponent also did not stand still, defended himself and counterattacked.
– In the last month you have played three times against Dynamo and all games have ended with a difference of one goal. What are the blues and whites doing that are putting your team in trouble?
— Dynamo’s strengths are their combativeness and puck speed. Hockey is sharp, you’re gaping in offense and you’ll never catch your opponent. Sometimes we flirted, and Dynamo quickly go from defense to attack. Therefore, at our doorstep, there were some highlights.
The Army team is second in the Western Conference standings, ahead of Dynamo by two points.
