Novosibirsk head coachSiberia » Andrey Martemianov after the defeat of Saint Petersburg S.K.A. during a pre-season tournament game, he said flower hockey was only worth playing when the hockey players were up to the standard.
On Wednesday, Sibir lost to SKA Petersburg with a score of 2:4 in the match of the Nikolai Puchkov tournament in St. Petersburg.
– A good game from both teams. The mass of created moments. Somewhere we haven’t finished ours, unfortunately. The opponent is more skillful, in most cases he very clearly realizes his chances. I think this game will be good for us. Let’s draw conclusions. We will prepare for the next game against Avangard,” Martemyanov told reporters.
– When did you realize that ornate hockey was destructive?
– Yes, it’s not destructive, you just have to know how to play it! If you can’t, don’t show what you can’t. There are times when you need to play easier to turn the tide of the match, losing. There’s no other way – it’s all on the doorstep. You have to climb there, make the right touches. Now, especially since the rules allow him to take the initiative. And when there are cross passes to an empty player, interceptions and counterattacks in his area are obtained. Here we need to act faster. Reliability, reliability and more reliability.
The specialist also said that the Novosibirsk team was doing well in the minority.
– How difficult is it to resist SKA in the majority?
— I have already said that the team is competent. One of my colleagues works there. I know how he does. Understand, look. One of the pucks is a ricochet. The last goal was well scored. I don’t think we played badly in the minority. This was also shown in previous matches – we, in my opinion, did not concede a single goal in the minority, although we played through the roof enough. Summer hockey, a lot of deletions, it’s normal.
Sibir will play the next match of the Saint Petersburg tournament on August 25 against Avangard Omsk.
