Head coach of Moscow “Spartacus” Alexey Jamnov after the FONBET KHL championship match with Moscow region “Vityaz” said that the conversation with the “red and white” hockey players before the third period influenced the final outcome of the match.
On Saturday, Spartak beat Vityaz at home in overtime with a score of 5: 4, although after two periods they lost 0: 3.
— How do you explain that this is not the first time that Spartak has won in a similar style, thus turning the tide of the match?
– Well done guys, they didn’t give up. But any coach will tell you that it shouldn’t come to that. The game did not go as planned. There were a lot of unnecessary deletions. This breaks the game, of course. There were many flaws, especially in the programs. Well, there was no sharpness. The only good thing was that in the third period they started to do the right things.
—What was said during the timeout at the end?
– Lots of things. I don’t remember it now.
– This seems to have an impact.
– Not really. I think the conversation before the third period had an impact. The guys understand everything perfectly. There are games where a lot of things don’t work. You also have to go through and overcome that. Congratulations on your return. Today, many argued.
— When the score was 2:4, did the goalkeeper ever think about taking off?
— We filmed it when necessary.
— Maltsev and Belyaev were released at the end, who scored the fourth goal.
– We have two brigades. The guys know where they need to be and what to do. Vanya Morozov’s first team was almost complete and played for more than a minute. In such moments, freshness and a cool head are needed. That’s why they released the second brigade. The guys coped with the task, well done.
— What can you say about Georgi Ovchinnikov?
– Well done. He brought freshness and replaced Loktionov. He brought aggression and speed, which was missing today. Therefore, Maltsev was transferred to another unit. Well done my boy. He did everything right, and this is the result: he made an assist and scored. I can only congratulate you. The main thing is to continue in the same spirit
— Orlov missed the match.
— Purely rotation. He suffered minor microtrauma. How are you. They gave him a rest, you will probably see him in the next match, ”reports the correspondent of , reporting Zhamnov’s words.
Spartak scored 43 points and is in second place in the Western Conference standings.
