Head Coach “Torpedo” Igor Larionov reported that the Nizhny Novgorod attacker Andrei Belevich will be put back into service in about a month and a half.
On Saturday, Torpedo lost to Spartak in the FONBET KHL championship match with a score of 2:4. Belevich had already been put on the injured list. This season, the forward has played three matches in which he scored one assist.
— Did you miss the first goal because of an incorrect shift?
— There was a pure blocking of the player. Firstov wanted to hinder his opponent, but he was not allowed to do so.
— Spartak had four chances to make it 1-0. What is the reason for this?
— We knew that the opponent always has an attacker in the middle zone, ready to run away. We have to tighten these points. There is a day to search and find the reasons.
— What caused the attack’s problems in the first half?
– You get what your opponent gives you. After missing goals, I had to come to my senses and stop panicking.
— Do you agree that Nikolaev seriously dragged Spartak down?
— Every time you lose a match, you understand that the opposing goalkeeper played well. But we didn’t give him any serious work.
— When will Belevich resume his duties?
“It’s a big loss for us.” We hope to return in 6-8 weeks,” a correspondent reports, according to Larionov.
Spartak scored 9 points and ranks first in the Western Conference standings.
