Attack SKA Sergei Plotnikov told that he was in no particular mood for the meeting with CSKA for whom he has already played, and the success of the team is more important to him than personal statistics.
On Thursday, SKA defeated CSKA at home in the FONBET KHL championship match with a score of 5:4 (OT). Plotnikov scored one of the goals. Sergei has been playing for CSKA since 2021, where he left SKA. In May, the striker returned to the St. Petersburg club, signing a four-year contract. Plotnikov is a three-time Gagarin Cup winner, including two with CSKA and another while playing for SKA.
— Was there a special atmosphere during the match against your former team?
—To be honest, nothing special. Although, it seems, he has spent so many years… But he took everything calmly, calmly prepared as for an ordinary meeting. I will prepare as much as possible for each next match – that’s how it is now.
—How important was it to stand out in this match?
— Victory is always important to me. Personal results will come. The main thing is that we won.
— In almost every match, SKA concedes two or more goals. What is the reason?
— This is a question for the technical staff. I think we will find out,” Plotnikov told .
SKA scored 23 points and is in second place in the Western Conference standings.
