Before “Metallurgy” Daniel Vovchenko I can’t believe his goal won the team the Gagarin Cup.
Magnitogorsk Metallurg defeated Lokomotiv Yaroslavl (2:1) on Wednesday in the fourth match of the final series of the Fonbet KHL Championship playoffs and won the Gagarin Cup. Vovchenko scored the winning goal. The series ended with a score of 4-0.
— I don’t think I scored the winning goal in the Gagarin Cup final. It’s like I’m in a dream. Just incredible emotions.
— Is it symbolic that the decisive goal was scored by the guys with whom you played together in Cherepovets – Petunin and Geraskin? What does this mean to you?
– This means that we are champions, nothing more. All the guys are handsome! It doesn’t matter who passed the ball, who scored. We won the Gagarin Cup, that’s the main thing,” Vovchenko told .
Metallurg became a three-time winner of the Gagarin Cup. Previously, the Magnitogorsk club won the trophy in the 2013/14 and 2015/16 seasons. In terms of the number of trophies, Metallurg is equal to Ak Bars (2009, 2010, 2018) and CSKA (2019, 2022, 2023).
