Captain “Avant-garde » Damir Sharipzianov In a conversation with , he explained why the Omsk team suffered a series of five defeats, noting that the players did not show high-level hockey throughout the match.
On Monday, Avangard lost to SKA in St. Petersburg with a score of 1:4. Before that, the Omsk team lost to “Amur” (2:3), “Sibir” (1:4), “Salavat Yulaev” (2:4) and “Avtomobilist” (0:3). The Hawks are currently in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, with 7 points from eight matches.
— There were intrigues in the match with SKA until the 52nd minute, until you conceded two goals in 30 seconds. What can you say about the game?
— Firstly, in the first half we already conceded quick and unnecessary goals in the return leg, which we are still talking about. It is difficult to save an away game when the score is 0:2 against SKA or any other club. This is a very difficult start. The same thing happened in Ufa (the score was 0:2 in the 10th minute).
It seems that we are playing well. But for now, in segments. We cannot release a full 60-minute game. But something is visible. We will work, but where to go?
— Avangard, after three victories, suffered five consecutive defeats. Was there a turning point?
– No, actually. We have a lot of young people who have trained us. Maybe they believed in themselves too much. In principle, this is a common situation when young people do not play at the same level. When you are 19-20 years old.
We have good guys – Phil (Filatiev), Rein (Reinhardt)… They give good games, but unfortunately, so far only in places. It’s normal, we talk to them. But we need more commitment from the others, including me.
— At the same time, you have 6 (1+5) points in eight matches. Good for a defender.
– But I have a “-4” for usefulness. I have conceded at least one goal in my last five matches. And we have suffered five defeats. Maybe if I do not miss anything, we will win? Maybe we should start with this? And the glasses? They will be, “Sharipzyanov told .
On Wednesday, Avangard will play in Yaroslavl against Lokomotiv.
