At the same time, during the match “Ak Bars” led with a score of 1:3. Yashkin scored his first hat-trick for the Kazan club in the match. Additionally, in overtime, the Czech striker assisted Vadim Shipachev.
“We were ahead 3:1, but we lost the advantage? We are not very satisfied with the match. A victory is a victory, we should be happy about that. We lost the advantage against Ufa, and now it happens reproduced? I I don’t think it’s a question of motivation, it’s more a question of concentration. We have to concentrate. We still miss a few chances and then our opponents take advantage of those chances.
Kagarlitsky explained Yashkin’s high performance
First hat-trick in Ak Bars? It’s always nice to score. Happy to have won. It is essential. Which puck did you prefer? All my pucks are beautiful (laughs),” Yashkin is quoted in the club’s press service.
