Offensive Severstal Daniil Vovchenko highlighted the merit of the team’s goalkeeper Alexandra Samonova in the away win over CSKA in the second game of the Gagarin Cup series.
Severstal won in the second overtime (3:2 OT). After Saturday’s meeting, the series score became equal – 1-1.
– In extra time, CSKA players went one-on-one with your goalkeeper several times. How to avoid this in the future?
– Yes, Samonov, one might say, pulled us by the ears. Not just him, everyone was braided, they understood that they had to get this game out, that’s why they held on and scored a goal. With the last puck, of course, we got a little lucky. But without luck, there are no victories in hockey.
– It will be difficult to win if you continue to spend most of the game on the defensive.
– So let’s add houses to the attack. How exactly – coaches will tell you.
The third match of the series will take place on March 6 on the Severstal ice rink. Watch the live broadcast of the match starting at 7:20 p.m. (Moscow time) on the KHL PRIME channel, as well as on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru websites.
