Triple world champion, winner of the Gagarin Cup Alexei Tereshchenko believes that Yekaterinburg Avtomobilist won a well-deserved victory in the series with St. Petersburg SKA.
On Monday, Avtomobilist defeated SKA (5:4) in the fifth match; the quarterfinal series of the Fonbet KHL championship ended with a score of 4 to 1 in favor of the Yekaterinburg team.
— “Avtomobilist” plays well on offense and defense, with a lot of blocked shots. In the first ten minutes the score could have been 3:0, but the SKA goalkeeper held back. We won deservedly, good organizational work. They are already claiming something serious, the team is in the semi-finals.
“Avtomobilist” entered the top four and will want more. Sergei Shirokov plays there, who won the Olympic Games and the World Championship, now the coaching team must present everything correctly,” Metaratings.ru quotes Tereshchenko.
The Yekaterinburg team became the second semi-finalist of the Gagarin Cup after Chelyabinsk Traktor. Avangard and Lokomotiv, as well as Metallurg and Spartak, continue to fight for the two remaining places in the semi-finals.
