Traktor vs. Yugra 2:1. Press-conference after the match

Sergey Shepelev, Yugra’s head coach:

First off, I would like to congratulate Traktor on tonight’s victory. Traktor is now one of the best teams in all of KHL, and to our credit, we fought until the end trying to save the game. If we had a little bit of luck, I’m sure we could do just that, but alas, not tonight.

Valery Belousov, Traktor’s head coach:

Good match tonight, the most important thing for us is three points. We are still in the lead on the East, which is certainly a good thing.

Question to Belousov: Could it be said that Traktor’s fourth line was the best one tonight?
Belousov: They played a great match, both offensively and defensively. They’ve got stellar future ahead of them, no doubt. However, you can’t say someone played better; the whole team persevered tonight, that is why we emerged victorious.
