Attack CSKA Anton Slepychev after the defeat ofLocomotive “In the second match of the KHL championship playoffs, Fonbet told that the opponent played well in the second period and changed well, thanks to which he squeezed his team in his own zone.
On Saturday, CSKA lost to Lokomotiv away in the second match of the first round of the KHL playoffs (1:2). The score in the confrontation became 1-1. The third match of the series will take place in Moscow on March 4.
— In the second match, CSKA lost momentum in the second half and began to give way to Lokomotiv in a hurry. What is this linked to?
– This was due to pressure from Lokomotiv. They played well in the second period, they changed well, so they squeezed us a little in their zone. They ended up getting two long range shots, they had to be blocked and played with more precision. Overall we controlled the game, but one puck is not enough.
— Do you agree that Lokomotiv began to play more aggressively on your field, creating traffic in front of Ivan Fedotov, thanks to which they scored both goals?
– I think so. They insisted on it. We just didn’t have enough aggression near the opponent’s goal,” Slepyshev told .
