Front SKA Zakhar Bardakov considers poor execution to be SKA’s main problem in the KHL playoff quarterfinal series against Avtomobilist.
Avtomobilist defeated SKA on Tuesday in St. Petersburg in the second match of the series – 3:1. The series score became 2-0 in favor of the Yekaterinburg team.
– Good combative matches, we will win in Yekaterinburg. We have analyzed the opponent, but we have our own game. We play to the best of our abilities and capabilities. So far they are scoring more than us. The only problem I see is that they score more than us and we can’t convert the chances we create. We missed the first goal on the power play. You can’t miss the majority in the playoffs. But it’s not easy to recover from something like this.
In the second period, there were three consecutive takedowns. Somewhere we lost the thread of the game. Vasya (Glotov) scored an out-of-competition goal. If there are more goals like this, there will be victories.
The goals are very difficult for us in this series, but easy for them. It’s still difficult for us to score,” Bardakov was quoted as saying by a correspondent.
On March 21, the teams will hold their third meeting in Yekaterinburg.
