Hockey players “Lada” made two serious errors in the third period of the second match of the first round of the KHL playoffs against Omsk Avangard, believes the forward of the Togliatti team Nikita Popugaev .
On Sunday, Lada lost in overtime to Avangard in Omsk in the first round of the Gagarin Cup with a score of 2:3. Until the 52nd minute, the guests led with a score of 2:0.
— We started very well, but in the third period, we made two serious mistakes, including me. And the match did not go as planned. There was no fatigue, we recovered well. It’s hard to say why the mistakes started, we started to find something in our zone, but we should have played simpler,” Popugaev said in the Championship.
The series score became 2-0 in favor of the Omsk club. The third match of the four-win series will take place on Tuesday in Togliatti.
