Neftekhimik forward Evgeny Mityakin talks with the media after a following 2–0 win over Metallurg Mg.

– It was a good game, everyone was in the right frame of mind. We need to try to win every game.

– How did you manage to beat the champion?
– We played well and blocked a lot of shots. The goaltender played well, all the players played great. We scored good goals. We played wel ldefensively.

– In the third, it was clear that the opponent would try to tie the game up. Our team was more than prepared for this...
– Yes, of course. We understood that they needed to recoup. We needed to play strictly, but no one forgot about the attack. We wanted to play like we played in the first and second. But, I repeat, we knew that they would try to tie the game up.

The main thing is that we won. Two points is a good thing. This is a great team win. Everyone supported each other, the bench was fired up. We must continue in the same way, and everything will be fine.
