– With the exception of the second period we played well, – said the expert. – Health defended Sasha Eremenko, helped the team. If the first and third we played on the instructions, the second part failed. We are a little flawed, but do it all in training. We will continue to work.

Of course, the CHL and Eurotrip – two different speeds, different levels. I was hoping that we’d rather play with them in the majority.

– Today Eremenko played under the twenty numbers, but in the “Dynamo” appears under first. He said that he saw a shape with a new number in the locker room.
– For me it was a surprise too. I just now found out about it.

– How to evaluate a bunch Zaripov and Mozyakina in this meeting?
– It is difficult to give an unambiguous assessment. It is clear that in the CHL and Euroround different speeds. I was hoping for more Ural majority. In the opening match gave Mozyakina play in two parts. It was such a blank: the game “5 for 4″ and keep Mozyakina Kovalchuk on the ice for two minutes and change Shipacheva with Zaripov, Belova with Medvedev and Plotnikov with Burmistrov.

one goal scored, could another. But in the game “5 by 5″ in Magnitogorsk turned out not all.

– Sergey Plotnikov said the team was tired to the third period …
– I do not feel it. We failed the second period, and the third played well. Given the CHL schedule may Plotnikov and rights.

Mentor Finnish team Kari Jalonen in turn, said that the game was up with the Russian goal.

«The first congratulate my colleague Oleg Znarka with a victory – said Jalonen. – It was a good game, what I was expecting. In the first period we were able to create moments. Then we created, but it was a match one goal, which if you slaughter, then you can forget about winning. I am pleased with the play of his defenders, but expected more in the attack ».

Defender Evgeny Medvedev, the author of the first puck Russians, recognized as the best player of the match, said that it would be fair to give the award Eremenko.

«First of all, we tried to do what we require from the coaching staff – said Medvedev. – Played strictly according to the instructions. In front, of course, there were moments of improvisation, but in general played on a standard pattern ».

Wow, that won and left the gate shut. In fact, I would give a prize to the best player Eremenko match.

According to counsel, the Russian team to thoroughly understand the Finns.

«The match was somewhat crumpled because of the excitement – after all, for us it was the first game at home tournament – added player. – In addition, we had to take revenge after the Finns Karjala Cup. It is unlikely that this victory can answer the Olympic defeat of the Finnish national team, it will not soon be forgotten. But I wanted to prove that we can win against this opponent ».

At the same time, he has repeatedly said goalkeeper Alexander Eremenko modestly said that his work was not much.

“The work was not so much – said the goalkeeper. – The guys helped me cool, played well in defense. All threw themselves under the washer, dedication was colossal. The result is obvious.

Fortunately, in the third period, the player Finns from the vantage point hit the post. We deserved this victory and tried very hard. ”

Eremenko added that for the first time realized what the real Russian national team.

«Well, that played a match at zero, but the main thing – victory – said the goalkeeper. – In the second and third periods it was difficult to keep a minimal advantage, but we managed to do it as a team. In Sochi, a great atmosphere.

I’m here for the first time playing in goal team. At the Olympics I could not even sit on the bench. But now I felt what a real Russian team.

We have a very friendly team: all fight for each other, plasteel. Plus Oleg V. on the bench – as if once again in the Champion “Dinamo”‘m »

Forward Vadim Shipachev spoke about coaching set to match.

«We paid much attention to the defense – said the player. – The Finns are very fast aggressive team that likes to run away in a counterattack. To avoid this, we are constantly returning to the defense, so that the game was not the most spectacular.

Play stricter and put pressure when there is a possibility, it is the coach’s installation. This is the purpose. Well, that happened a lot, plus Eremenko helped defeat.

The leader of the Russian team Ilya Kovalchuk was the most concise.

«a good impression on the game. Won, the most important thing. Had a good first period, the second could have played better. Well, that Sasha Eremenko at the right time helped us out, and we doterpeli to the end “, – concluded the striker.
