Reaktor Head Coach Ilnar Misbakhov speaks with the media after a following 1–3 loss against Chaika.
– We played with great desire, but desire was not enough to win. We held out for half the game, and then we started making individual mistakes with consequences for us. The opponent had an excellent finish, so we were punished. There were chances to swing the game in our favor due to the power play, but it did not work out. In the locker room, I told the guys that they need to learn to take some games with a score of 1:0. Score, and then work and endure... We did not succeed.
