Athletistic/Hockey. On Friday, March 22, Zinetula Bilyaletdinov announced his resignation from his position as head coach of Ak Bars. This season, the team was relegated from the KHL after the 1/8 finals of the playoffs, losing to Avtomobilist with a score of 1:4 in the series. The head of the FHR, Vladislav Tretyak, spoke about this.

– I really respect Zinetula Bilyaletdinov. I believe he is one of the best coaches in our country. It was his decision, he did the job. The previous season, Bilyaletdinov once again showed that he is a coach with a capital letter. This season something didn’t work, but it happens, it’s sport. Bilyaletdinov still remains one of our main coaches,” Tretyak said in an interview with Match TV.

Last season, Zineutla Bilyaletdinov was invited to lead Ak Bars after an unsuccessful start under Oleg Znark. The Kazan club took first place in the Eastern Conference of the KHL following the results of the regular season, then reached the final of the Gagarin Cup, where it lost to CSKA.
