Head coach of Tolyatti “Frets » Oleg Bratach said that there will be changes in the team composition after the defeat against Omsk Avangard in the third game of the first round series of the Fonbet KHL Championship playoffs.
On Tuesday, Lada lost to Avangard at home with a score of 1:3 and the Bratash team received two-minute penalties three times for non-compliance with the number of players. The score in the first round of the playoffs was 3-0 in favor of the Omsk team.
— Once again, like in the last match, I liked the actions of our team. It was very rewarding to face such a strong opponent on an equal footing. We can say that we continue to get acquainted with individuals in our team who, at their discretion, can undo the efforts of the entire team. It didn’t give us a chance to win. Yes, I’m also talking about digital force violations, but the timing was much worse. Even if these violations are blatant.
Of course, quick goals at the start of the period do not contribute to the psychological state of the team. But we didn’t stop playing, in the third period we had the initiative, the team was ready to fight for victory in this match. But apparently it’s not destiny. We can probably expect some roster changes in the next game. Many of them are, to say the least, not at their best in these playoffs. And I’m not talking about skills, but about attitude towards the team, ”Bratash is quoted on the KHL website.
The next match in Togliatti will take place on March 7.
