Attack “Ak Barsa” Ilya Safonov commented on the team’s defeat against “Avant-garde” in the Fonbet KHL Championship, noting that the Omsk team began to win the fight during the meeting, which allowed them to turn the tide of the match.
The meeting in Omsk took place on Friday and ended with a score of 4:2 in favor of Avangard.
— Somehow we relaxed, maybe when the score was 2:0. Although first of all, of course, the opponent added, they began to win a lot of fights. For this reason, they started to interrupt the game. Were you careful? I don’t know, for my part I played the way I played, it’s just that in certain moments we could have played simpler, rather than trying to do something intelligent in our zone.
I won’t dwell on the fact that the five-minute power play and 5-on-3 were not implemented. Of course it would be great if we scored, but today it didn’t work. I hope we will work on our mistakes,” Safonov said as quoted by “Championship”.
Ak Bars is seventh in the Eastern Conference standings with 66 points.
