Press-conference

Head Coach HC "Donbass" Alexander Kulikov:

-First, I want to congratulate the opposing team with victory. The team has shown a decent hockey. The mistakes that we made, they have implemented. And in the end brought the game to win. As much as we do not rebuilt, but have not been able to score. Probably the last game when we met in Almetyevsk, we warned the guys that this is a serious team. In general, now in the premier league there is no simple matches. Somehow did not tuned and got a bit. I can not say that we played badly, there was the desire there was the tendency. But one goal is not the way to win. Not the first match very few pucks hammered. This is not football, where you can score one goal and expect to succeed. In hockey, to feel calm, you need to score five. We have this problem so far.

One player has played in a mask, why (Zhurun)?

-He has recently been injury, he knocked out a tooth, so he played in the mask. Need some time so everything was delayed, overgrown, so he played in the mask.

Head Coach HC "Ariada-Akpars" Ilnur Gizatullin:

- Thank you for your congratulations contestants. The game generally liked. In the first period the guys came out in a sort of stupor, there were two moments of the "5 to 3", you need to score, to decide. Then we suggested this to the boys in the second, third period. They have already started to play more relaxed. Even going out through injury for three fives. We stand, and I think the audience liked the game.

What did you say to the team after the first period? The team has changed.

-Just to relax, to do not feel like a coiled spring. Do not be afraid. Do not mistake the one who does nothing. Only there were no gross errors like in previous meetings.

You have changed the thre.

- It has more to deal with the injury - Zachupeyko was stretching.
