Head Coach “Salavata Yulaeva” Victor Kozlov noted that foreign players produce results, but matches are won by the team and not by individual units.
On Wednesday, Salavat Yulaev defeated “Tractor” with a score of 5:3.
— “Traktor” started the game strong and we expected it. The opponents made a good transition from defense to attack and we had problems with it at the beginning. (Goalie) Samonov had a good game, helping us at the beginning and at the end. In the second period, we turned the tide of the game and got the majority. The special teams did a good job. I would like to note the character of the guys. In all away games, we expected there to be a rush, for the fans to push the opponent forward, but we did not play as number two.
The legionnaires produce results, but it is not just one unit that wins, but the team. The guys from the third and fourth lines cope with the assigned tasks and maintain the rhythm of the game. “Today, everyone kept the rhythm as much as possible,” Kozlov was quoted as saying by the correspondent.
In the next match, Salavat Yulaev will host Kunlun Red Star at home on October 1.
