The CSKA striker summed up the match in Cherepovets.
— A lot of missed goals bothered us today. We score hard, although we create enough chances. After a scored goal, you need to play carefully, and we miss very easy goals. Hence all the problems.
— What needs to be changed before the next game?
— I think you need to add at the very beginning of the game. Defensive actions need to be improved in order not to miss so much.
— In the third period we managed to equalize, but there was a situation outside the game. Is it difficult psychologically?
— It is clear that this is unpleasant, but again — this is hockey. These are the rules, the puck really came out. So we didn't deserve to win today, and the opponent wanted more in some little things. We knew it would be such a tough series. A very unyielding team against us. I think we have enough experience. CSKA got out of even more difficult situations — we will fix it.
— Today there is a big fan sector of CSKA again at the match. Did you hear familiar voices?
— Of course, it's always nice when such support is on the road. We can always hear our fans — thank you very much! I hope that we will please them in the next matches.
