On Friday, SKA was defeated by Dynamo Moscow in a home match with a score of 1:3. This is the fourth consecutive defeat for the Army team.
“The energy in the palace was one of the best in recent times. The team regained its energy. It was our match, but the penalties… There is one criticism to be made of the guys: the discipline of the game and penalties.
Last season we only struggled in Game 5 of the playoffs. It is now better to survive these difficulties and strengthen your immune system. The main thing is that all the guys strive to win, we need to get our confidence back. We promise to come back to the next match with even more energy, we have to believe in the team.
We don’t need additional motivation, it is important to stay calm. Last season we had a good start, but this year we will have a good finish.
Defeat is not the end of the world. There will always be those who try to undermine us. But they won’t succeed, we have a solid team. Yesterday we met some fans and had a chat. We will overcome this challenge together, together we will achieve victory. SKA had different situations. We lost ten times in a row, then won the Gagarin Cup, ”Rotenberg said in an interview with a Match TV correspondent.
