Ilya Khokhlov: «We have to move only forward!»

Neftekhimik defenseman Ilya Khokhlov speaks with the media after a following 4–2 win against Ak Bars.

– Firstly, I would like to congratulate all women on the upcoming holiday. Congratulations to the team on the victory. I would like to thank the fans for their support.

– How did the team feel after 0-2 and managed to tie the game up and take a lead?

– We played well even before the conceded goals. We just could not find the key to the opponent's net. It is good that we quickly scored a tying goal and before the intermission.

– When the score was tied, there was kind of a physical game from both sides.

– These are playoff games and you cannot give up. We have to move only forward!
