The head coach “Salavata Yulaeva” Viktor Kozlov believes the team played a good match against “Avant-garde” despite the defeat.
“Salavat Yulaev” was defeated on Thursday by “Avangard”. The match in Omsk ended with a score of 1:0.
– A good, entertaining match. Both teams played well. Avangard were luckier today, scoring one more goal than us. We didn’t play as number two, we pressed actively. When the opponent scored, they started to focus more on defense.
We played against teams that also play fast hockey. If there were no chances to score, we could talk about problems. So, with both Torpedo and Avangard, there were scoring opportunities.
I would not like to praise Samonov. But you know that 90% of the game is the goaltending. I’m happy with the whole game. We played our fourth game with moves. All the teams were strong. The guys endured and fought, that’s a plus for us.
Fights? These are additional emotions. It was important for us today to show emotions. Timkin and Abrosimov launched both teams and the audience appreciated, ”reports the correspondent of , reporting Kozlov’s words.
