CSKA striker Anton Slepyshev summed up the match with Lokomotiv.
— Any match against Lokomotiv is a sticky game, everything was decided by the details. We were stronger in details today. Therefore, the score of the match is natural.
— You said that CSKA does not manage to start games. Is there any progress on this?
— It's hard to say. Perhaps luck was with us today, the throw was from a long distance. It's good that the puck went in, maybe it was a ricochet — I didn't understand myself. In general, we are working on this component. We focus on the fact that, failing the beginning, you need to save the match. Sometimes it worked, but sometimes it didn't. We talk with the guys, with the coaches — I hope the beginning will be even better.
— How was the atmosphere, were there a lot of fans?
— It was nice, thank you them much for your support. I would like to see them even more often with the teams from the bottom of the table. In any case, many thanks, it was heard. We feel it.
— How do you rate your current form?
— There were two injuries, so I lost my summer training a little bit. I need to add to training, but I'm getting in shape.
