The CSKA defender spoke about a series of matches with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl.
— What didn't work out in the first game to achieve a positive result?
— I think the game discipline in all aspects. This is probably the main reason.
— Nevertheless, the fight for the second place at the end of the regular season continues, and everything still depends on CSKA.
— Yes, and on us. Our job is to win and not give other teams a chance to get in. And as soon as they play there, we don't control it.
— If you become the second, who would you like to be a playoff opponent, or is it not a grateful thing to choose?
— No. We don't choose anyone. Why guess, this is an uncontrolled process. Who will be, he will be.
— How hard will it be to play against Lokomotiv for the second match in a row? Will it be possible to present surprises?
— Surprises? I don't think it's hard to do. Let's see, let's analyze this game. I think there will be nothing new there either from our side or from theirs. It's just that we'll have to play better in a different way.
— To allow your dissmissals less and improve the implementation of the power play?
— Yes. We had chances in the extra draw, but we didn't score. And they were in power play, and they used it, and the game turned around.
