Press-conference

Oleg Mikulchik (head coach, "Donbass-2"):

Why do I have such an overwhelming advantage failed to win in normal time?

- Do not use your good points. Gross errors in the defense at the end of the match allowed the opponent to feel confident. The "Companion", too, plays a lot of experienced guys, I know. They do not forgive such mistakes. Our defenders appeared some uncertainty to the powerful hitters. The same problem was also the last game with the "Sokol." Okay, so that today all over. There is still time before the playoffs - we analyze, and correct errors. We have new coaches in the "Donbass", and understand that we must all try to adjust and play to win, but a "Sokol" in the last match we have on those mistakes, over which we have to work. Of course, we wanted to win, and may well have lost that "Sokol", the day before yesterday, and we know what we have now problems in defense and attack. So today was a good game, liked it, but at the end of the fight with a team that had happened. I do not want to curse, scream, although the bench emotions overwhelmed us. We calmly discuss all the guys and eliminate the weaknesses in our game. The main thing is that the game we showed today good, but the only thing that could not - stand in the end game opponent bulk.
But, hockey - a game in which all can happen.

Of course, we must pay tribute and an opponent - they played at the end of the third period very well.
