Offensive S.K.A. Marat Khairullin after defeating CSKA told how he managed to mark a turning point in the match, and noted that his team did not have any particular difficulties in this match.
SKA St. Petersburg won a voluntary victory against CSKA Moscow in the Fonbet match of the Continental Hockey League championship (3: 1). On Darren Dietz’ puck (14th minute), the Petersburgers responded with accurate shots from Marat Khairullin (18th), Emil Galimov (58th) and Nikita Gusev (60th).
SKA leads the Western Conference with 90 points. In the next game, the team will visit Yaroslavl Lokomotiv on January 27.
— Suppressions affected, but we had the initiative. Good that you did the job. There were no particularly difficult moments in the match, in the second half the opponent had some initiative. We played by the system and calmly led the case to victory.
Before the goal, I didn’t shout anything at Nikishin (the author of the assist – approx.), He took the puck well, saw that I was running away and gave it to me. We have already been working together for six months, the ligaments have already developed, there is intra-team “chemistry”, – the correspondent quotes Khairullin.
