Offensive “Admiral” Alexander Gorshkov said he had never faced match fixing in his career.
Why does Admiral play so many extra times? I don’t know how it happened (laughs). I cannot answer this question. This is what happens during the game. Somewhere, maybe we are holding the score, and from there it turns out that we have already won one point and are already fighting for the second. Hard to really answer. Purely, maybe it happens by chance.
Of course, you can force events to end. But you can understand something and then you don’t play what we have in mind somewhere and miss it, on the contrary. And the score will be completely different, you will already lose. This is what you must do for such moments. Somewhere you can find something in your own attack. But they haven’t found it yet (laughs).
Many suspect match fixing and point sharing? I have never faced match fixing in my life. So, I will say that it is absurd, it seems to me. With the same “Siberia”, what kind of match fixing could there be? No. Sibir is the same team, somewhat similar to ours, they also play defensive hockey, and such hockey turned out. How can you agree? Everyone wants to win. Here too, we are not protecting corn, but playing for the whole country. It is absurd to discuss such things,” Gorshkov told The Championship.
“Admiral” takes 7th place in the Fonbet rankings of the Eastern Conference KHL Championship.
