2012/2013 Playoffs. Game 3, Traktor vs. Avangard – 3:0. Press-conference after the match
Petri Matikainen, Avangard’s head coach:
I think tonight’s game was our best in this series, but once again we had a very slow start. We still allow our opponents to score easy goals. Nonetheless, the series is not over yet; we will be ready for game 4.
Valery Belousov, Traktor’s head coach:
A quick goal in the first period helped us a great deal. Before the final period I asked my players to focus on the defense and counterattacks which they did to perfection.
