17.02.2026

Neftekhimik defenseman Maxim Fedotov speaks with the media after a following 0–1 loss against Lokomotiv.
– The game was tough. Unfortunately, we lost because we didn't capitalize on our chances. We will keep working and correcting our mistakes.– The game was quite even; we even outshot our opponent. What were we missing today?
– We missed a scored goal. We needed to score at least one – then the game could have turned out differently.
– How tough is it psychologically after games like these?
– I don't think it puts any pressure on us. Yes, it's unpleasant to lose, but you have to work hard to get out of any series. We need to prove our worth with our play and move on.
– What's the guys' emotional state right now?
– Yes, they're in a good, positive state. We still have games ahead. It's one thing when it's the playoffs, when there are no games to play, but here we need to analyze our game and prepare for the home series.
– In your opinion, what needs to be done in order to improve our scoring chances?
– Work, everything comes with work. If we do everything right, the results will come.
