CSKA defender Yaroslav Dyblenko told that the return of Sergei Fedorov to the coaching bench had a positive impact on the military team’s performance in the last two matches of the KHL regular season.
On Tuesday, CSKA won its second consecutive victory in the regular KHL championship by defeating Kunlun (4:2). Before that, the Army team defeated Vityaz, ending a five-game losing streak. Fedorov had missed matches since late January due to illness and returned to duty before the match with Vityaz.
— Is it difficult to play against a team that really doesn’t need anything?
– In fact, it is always difficult for us in Mytishchi, it is not for nothing that we had unsuccessful previous matches here. Thank goodness they broke the streak. It was unsettling at the end: it seemed like they were about to meet again. It’s good that they threw it into an empty door and removed all the questions.
— You win your second consecutive victory after Fedorov’s return. It turns out that the coach on the bench decides after all?
– Yes of course. We missed him, we missed him. He arrived on a positive note. We were all sad, losing game after game. He came with a smile, with pleasure: they say, guys, everything is fine, we will sort everything out and fix it, it’s time until March. And the result came,” Dyblenko told the correspondent.
