20.02.2024
Neftekhimik head coach Oleg Leontyev speaks with the media after a following 1–2 loss against Dinamo Mn.
– We had a good scoring–chances at the end of the game. It was a hard–battled game. We did our best. The guys played to the very end.– The team lost its chances for making playoffs. How difficult will it be to get the guys ready for the next two games?
– A professional player should always have one desire, one attitude, regardless of the opponent and the standings.
– Why did you decide to make Artyom Zagidulin a starting goaltender?
– I think that Artyom is also a high-class goaltender. Dolganov must be given time to recover.
– How did you feel when you saw your photo at the Minsk Arena?
– This city is like a second home for me. I spent ten seasons here. It is nice to hear and see that the fans remember me and welcome me. I appreciate it. I always come here with pleasure.
