Champion of Russia within the framework of “Locomotive » Vladimir Antipov told that it was too early to congratulate the Yaroslavl team, because the railway workers still have a lot of work to do.
On Monday, Lokomotiv defeated Chelyabinsk Traktor with a score of 3:0 in the fourth game of the Gagarin Cup semi-final series and will participate in the finals of the KHL playoffs for the second time in its history. In the second semi-final, Yekaterinburg Avtomobilist meets Magnitogorsk Metallurg (series score is 1-2).
— Lokomotiv has an ambitious goal, but the party for the supporters is already beginning. I’m happy for the people of the city, the supporters of the club, but it’s too early to sing the praises of the team itself, because there is a lot of work to do.
Traktor had a chance to catch up in the second match, but in the series there was no chance for the Chelyabinsk team. Now the main thing is that the long break does not play a cruel joke on the Yaroslavl team. But I think everything will be fine. “Lokomotiv shows fundamental hockey,” Antipov told .
Lokomotiv will play in the Gagarin Cup final for the first time since 2009.
