Among the few who are not subject to superstition was forward Alexei Tertyshny:
- A very difficult game - there weren’t any lungs with Ak Bars. Those who make less mistakes win. In the final series - even more so.
- You managed to keep the shock five of Kazan. She scored only once, realizing the majority.
- Against Zinoviev, Zaripov and Morozov, we have a good composition, that's why he is the first. Therefore, they did not give the first three “Ak Bars” a walk. And we also have enough to play in the minority of masters - Igor Korolev, for example. From the outside it is noticeable that the Zinoviev link and our first three are extremely difficult to confront each other - these links are worthy of each other.
- The match turned out to be difficult. Do you have time to recover in a day?
“We have nothing supernatural in store.” We will prepare for tomorrow's meeting as usual. Just get enough sleep, and in the morning again for training.
- Tell us about the first goal. You were at the forefront of the attack, but for some reason you didn’t put the club under Varlamov’s throw. The puck was recorded on his account.
- I deliberately went on a dime to close the goalkeeper's visibility. The puck, launched by Varlamov, slipped between my legs, then ricocheted either from the defender, or from Noronen passed into the net. To be honest, I was going to put the club under the throw, but really did not see anything. I finished the episode, looked at Zhenya Varlamov, and he was already in the arms of Atyushov with his arms outstretched.
- Do you still have old scores with the Kazan club? Still, you played there.
- Not. I have been in Magnitogorsk for four years. During this time, the composition of the “leopards” has changed significantly. There are no old accounts, and I'm already a Metallurg player to the core.
