The head coach SKA Romain Rotenberg After the loss to Spartak Moscow in the KHL championship game, Fonbet said that some top players were not in optimal shape.
The meeting in St. Petersburg ended with a score of 3:0 (0:0, 2:0, 1:0) in favor of the guests, SKA lost the third match in a row.
— It’s tough so far, a lot of our guys have come back after long injuries, it’s their first game. We took a risk and included them in the lineup to get in shape. We have a long season ahead of us.
Of course we will sort out all the mistakes, we have to win the next game, we have something to work on. Congratulations to my opponent on his victory.
— Why couldn’t you play in the first and second periods the same way as in the third?
– Many factors. Somehow we had to travel: there were four away matches. Somewhere I had to force myself in work… It’s difficult for many guys after injuries, it’s difficult for them to find the tone of the game, they are our leaders, we will put them in the “Alignment so they can get in shape,” Rotenberg said on KHL Prime.
SKA is in ninth place in the KHL Western Conference standings with four points.
