Attack “Motorist” Artem Kashtanov commented on the victory over Metallurg in the sixth game of the Fonbet KHL Championship semifinals.
On Saturday, Avtomobilist beat Metallurg at home with a score of 5:3. The score in the best-of-four series is 3-3.
— The game was difficult. We led the whole match, but missed a few unpleasant goals. We should have played simpler.
— You scored your first goal in the KHL playoffs…
— Maxim Denezhkin hit the boards, the puck bounced off Dana Romantsev, then successfully on me. He picked up the puck, beat the goalie and couldn’t believe he scored.
— How did the team react to the fact that Vladimir Galkin would play in goal?
“Everyone supported us, as usual.” Everyone knew he was an excellent goalkeeper. We just had to help him, and he helped us.
— What will be the key to the seventh game?
— The key, as in all playoffs, will be to play defense, play without the puck and convert your chances. We will have to go out and try to load the goalkeeper as much as possible,” Kashtanov said, as quoted by RB Sport.
On April 15, the teams will play the seventh and decisive match of the series, which will be held in Magnitogorsk.
