The head coach “Sochi” Dmitri Kokorev said the team was not lucky enough in the pre-season tournament match named after Nikolai Puchkov against Saint Petersburg S.K.A. .
On Wednesday at the Ice Palace in St. Petersburg, Sochi lost to SKA 3:4, although after the first half they were leading 2:0.
– Good game. In the first half, they played well, they took the lead. In the second half, there were many deletions. The third period was even. They fought until the end, but lost. We will work, but we are on the right track.
After the first match we discussed with the guys, this match didn’t work out at all (lost to Severstal – 1:7). Today we went out and played well. There were a lot of deletions, but I can’t say we fell. We weren’t lucky enough, an extra throw, we were a little dragged, we wanted to improve our position.
Everyone plays as a goalkeeper, we will decide on the first number as the season approaches, ” correspondent reports Kokorev’s words.
In the next game of the tournament, Sochi will face Avtomobilist on August 25.
The Nikolai Puchkov tournament will take place in Saint Petersburg from August 21 to 26.
