Former Spartak footballer Alexander Chechoukov said who he supports in the Continental Hockey League (KHL ).
— I support Avangard. I am Omsk. I have been going to the arena since I was a child. I have never supported another hockey team. Only “Avant-garde” .
The Gagarin Cup? In the East as in the West, there are three or four teams capable of winning. Some may have a deeper team. And that will be critical in the long run because injuries happen. I think a more even and balanced team across all lines, with roughly equal fives, will be the winner. And of course, as a fan, I hope that Avangard reaches the final,” Sheshukov quotes RT.
On Saturday, Avangard defeated Lada Togliatti in the fifth game of the first round of the KHL playoffs and won the series with a score of 4-1. The next opponent for Mikhail Kravets’ team will be determined later.
