SKA head coach Roman Rotenberg, explaining his appearance at the “penny” before the “Match of the Year”, said that it reminded him of his father’s first car, which he bought in 1989.
At the “Game of the Year” Rotenberg was part of the coaching staff of the KHL All-Star team. The specialist arrived at the game driving a VAZ-2101 Zhiguli.
— These are my childhood memories. 1989, when my father bought his first car – a green kopeck. Alas, this is not that car. This car was the first to appear in the family. It did not have a windshield wiper; it had to wipe the glass with a rag. I remembered that moment for the rest of my life. And for me, it is a certain connection with the time when my father was a trainer and taught hand-to-hand combat at a police school.
For us, the appearance of the car was a huge event, as for any citizen of the USSR at that time. These are some childhood memories. It was important for me to feel these memories today, when I was driving in a traffic jam in manual transmission in Moscow for almost two hours. By the way, a very high-quality car, I want to emphasize! — a correspondent of reports Rotenberg’s words.
