Attack “Motorist” Sergei Chirokov summed up the match against “Tractors” .
On November 18, Avtomobilist lost to Traktor in the Fonbet KHL championship match with a score of 2: 4.
— After the match, there was a feeling of bitterness because we had lost. We took the lead, then conceded, then another goal in the minority. We don’t mark our chances, but the opponent punishes us. And it’s a good match, a good atmosphere, thanks to the supporters. We will continue to prepare. After the Far East we were a little under-recovered, but that’s no excuse: everyone is on equal footing.
— Are you interested in the new concept of the Ural derby – with its own form, with a special environment?
– It’s cool. This was made more for the fans, and we understand everything perfectly well. We wanted to give a gift to Tolik Golyshev, who was playing his 500th game in the KHL, but it didn’t work out. We will now do our best in the home games. We have time to relax, regain strength and emotions.
— You scored for the first time since mid-September. Has a stone been removed from your shoulders?
— First of all, you need to think about the quality of the game you are presenting. In the last few games, I had chances, but the puck just didn’t go in the goal. We must not dwell on this, but move on. I hope it will be easier and simpler afterward. It’s great that he scored. But it would have been better if I hadn’t scored and we had won. We have a team sport, and everyone must contribute to the result. The main outcome of our work is the result at the end of the season.
— What do you need to show the same performance as last season?
— It’s not enough to score and pass. I hope everything will be better after that. The main thing is that the team wins. The most important thing awaits us: the fight for a place in the top eight, and then the playoffs, for which we are playing. Talking about personal results is not for me. We will help the team as much as possible.
— What are the reasons why Avtomobilist scores few goals this season and the majority convert less well?
— The performance of the majority is mediocre. We all understand this very well. We are working on it. They scored on the power play against Admiral and Traktor. We will work and perfect our actions. The most interesting thing is ahead, and we will try to be in full shape by the end of the season and the playoffs, ”Shirokov quotes RB Sport.
