Head coach of Magnitogorsk “Metallurgy” Andrei Razin took responsibility for the defeat in the regular season match of the FONBET KHL Championship with “Neftekhimik”
Sunday’s meeting in Magnitogorsk ended with a 2-0 victory for the guests from Nizhnekamsk.
– Live forever, learn forever. To be honest, after the last match I thought that it was not necessary to really set the guys straight, everyone understood everything, apparently, I did not succeed, because of the mood of Neftekhimik and the mood of most of our guys. eu, it is not good. I take all the responsibility on myself, because it is my job to set up the game. And so, it is clear that Zagidulin also came to prove, played for 0, congratulations to him. Everything is relevant, it will be a lesson for us.
– Of course, the goalkeeper can be blamed, two accidents for him. How can I help him in such situations so that he does not feel guilty?
– First of all, no one has said anything to him and will not say anything. Everyone understands everything, especially since he helped us out many times in the second half, when everything could have been much worse. He gave his chance, I don’t think he is responsible for those missed goals.
— You said you didn’t agree. And it seemed to me that I needed to calm the guys down, they seemed to be starting to get excited and overly excited. But haste and anger are not of much help. They did actions that were unusual for them.
— Again, you are talking about these things that come from the mood. It is clear that if you come out in the first minutes, you are in the mood, you are in work mode. And when you come out, you are not in the mood and think: now we will beat the opponent on the same skate. I scored today, I will return it. And here, once – it does not work, twice – it does not work. The opponent blocks everything, clings to the puck, of course, it will be harder further. And when you come out determined from the first seconds, score one and two, then everything goes according to the established rules.
— Are you satisfied with the content of the game?
— How can I be satisfied with the content? We lost, I didn’t like the content at all, if you noticed, we changed the combinations, the order by three. We tried to shake things up somehow, we tried to find ways, but today turned out to be such a day. There were moments when they could have turned the situation around. The same “drunk” Sapozhnikov could have scored today, but he didn’t. There are days like that. My goal is to beat Neftekhimik at all costs – it’s not worth it. “We have completely different tasks,” Razin said according to the press service of the Magnitogorsk club.
In the next match, the teams will face each other again; the match will take place on September 12 in Nizhnekamsk.
