Konstantin Okulov: we played a good game, but there is still a lot of work ahead

Forward of the CSKA club Konstantin Okulov told how they managed to defeat Avangard in the second game of the Gagarin Cup final series.

- We do not change our playing system, but there were moments that we did not accomplish during the first meeting. We had corrected this, and the general charge in the dressing room has changed. We had a good fight, but this is only the first step and there is still a lot of work ahead.

Definitely, the fact that the teams will not have to spend a lot of time on the moves in this series is a plus both for us and for them. We’ll have more time to recover, more time to take care of our bodies.

Who wins the first match, most often wins the series? This is the first time I've ever heard that. We do not pay attention to this, no matter who won the first game, the most important thing is to win the last fight.

A lot depends on our five-man line? After the first game, there was no burden as such, we understand that our line must do its job. When you lose the game and don’t do your job, it brings dissatisfaction. Today was a new day and we were able to come up trumps. I hope that it will be better in the future and we will cut it more.
