Attack SKA Mikhail Vorobiev told that he does not think about holidays during the match, although he has been forced to celebrate his birthday on the ice for many years now.
On Friday, SKA suffered a defeat against Lokomotiv. The Fonbet KHL Championship meeting at the Ice Palace ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of the guests. On the day of the match, Vorobyov was 27 years old.
— Mikhail, you celebrate your birthday on January 5. Is losing on vacation special?
– No, it’s my game day, not my birthday. Every year I have a match on this day.
— The team broke an 11-game winning streak at home. Have you noticed this?
– They didn’t count. We go from match to match, but there it didn’t work.
-So what exactly went wrong?
— There probably hasn’t been enough implementation. In the second period, we had to score when we closed the opponent in the zone, to be more persistent.
— In the match with Vityaz there was not a single deletion, now they were present. Did the deletions play a key role in the outcome?
— All the suppressions were in combat. They didn’t want to concede or give up the puck, that’s why it happened,” Vorobiev told .
SKA is third in the Western Conference with 63 points.
