The head coach “Metallurgist” Ilya Vorobiev after beating Sibir in the KHL Championship game, Fonbet said Magnitogorsk came out of a tough spot, gaining seven points in the last four encounters.
On Sunday, Metallurg inflicted a 4-1 defeat on Sibir in Novosibirsk. The guests twice converted the majority in the first half, took the lead and did not miss the advantage.
– It’s great that we immediately scored two majority goals, one after another, – the correspondent reports Vorobyov’s words. – This immediately gave us an advantage, which we managed to double in the second half. Our goalkeeper Pasquale played well and all the guys did a great job.
– In the last match, your team conceded five goals, so the emphasis was on strict defence?
– We didn’t expect to score so many goals in the last game, to be honest (laughs). But there are days when a lot of people steal.
– But today you only kicked 16 times on goal.
– But the accuracy was good. Some guys get sick, the virus spreads, some get a temperature. Some of the staff stayed at home.
— Why has Metallurg been uneven lately? How to maintain a winning spirit?
“We already seem to be on the mend. Of the eight possible points, seven have been taken in the last four matches. So we are doing something right.
Metallurg is third in the KHL Eastern Conference table with 77 points, one point behind Sibir.
