Reaktor forward Ilyas Sirazetdinov speaks with the media after a following 4–1 win over Tyumen Legion.
– We approached the game with a great sense of responsibility. We started confidently, preventing our opponents from creating chances. We blocked a lot of shots throughout the entire game and played selflessly. I think we won thanks to our teamwork.– This is the second game in a row that you've scored early in the game. What's the key to such a good start?
– We agreed in the locker room to put pressure on our opponents from the first shifts. Besides, the home team made mistakes in both situations. We just had to take advantage of it.
– In the second half of the third period, our opponents had the upper hand. What do you attribute that to?
– We wanted to finish the game calmly. We probably emphasized defense, which is why we started playing more in our own zone. Little by little, the initiative shifted to our opponents. But it's good that we held on and finished the game with a win.
