Triple world champion, winner of the Gagarin Cup Alexei Tereshchenko told that Dynamo Moscow goalkeeper Ilya Konovalov did not help the team at the right time, unlike the Traktor goalkeeper Zachary Fucale in the first game of the second round of the KHL playoffs against Chelyabinsk.
SATURDAY “Tractor” beat on the road “Dynamo” with a score of 4:2. Konovalov missed three goals with seven shots on goal, after the third goal he was replaced by Maxim Motorygin, who stopped 11 out of 12 shots. Fucale parried 35 out of 37 shots.
— There is no reason to be surprised by Dynamo’s defeat. It’s the playoffs. In terms of play, Dynamo looked good. The only thing is that Fucale helped, but Konovalov, unfortunately, did not help at the right time. But at the same time, it is a mistake to blame everything on the goalkeepers: Dynamo had to score their chances. We missed four goals, we have to score five. Moreover, Muscovites had a lot of chances, but they lacked something to achieve,” Tereshchenko told .
The teams will play their next match on March 18 in Moscow.
