Head coach of Ak Bars Zinetula Bilyaletdinov explained why the attackers Vadim Shipachev And Alexander Radulov missed the Fonbet KHL championship match against Metallurg.
The match in Kazan ended with a score of 4:1 (1:0, 2:0, 1:1) in favor of the guests.
– We gave them the opportunity to rest, there are guys who need to be controlled. There are different situations, no one is safe from injuries, so we had to look at this composition. In principle, this is a combat-ready team that must play and win.
— During the match, Dmitry Yudin left the lineup, what happened to him?
– He was injured. Now he has been taken to the hospital, I can’t say yet.
— How long will Shipachev and Radulov rest? Should we look forward to their match against Salavat Yulaev?
– I don’t know, we’ll decide today. We had our own thoughts on this,” the coach said, as quoted by the Ak Bars press service.
Ak Bars (50 points) suffered its third consecutive defeat in the regular season. The team is in seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
