Dinar Khafizullin: "We managed to equalise in time"

24 March 2017

- Was it difficult after conceding two quickfire goals in the third period?

- We wanted to keep on playing until the end. There weren't many chances, but we managed to equalise in time.

- Why did SKA let in two goals after scoring the initial equaliser?

- To be honest, I don't know. We'll analyse the match.

- Before this series, everyone spoke about Lokomotiv's dangerous play on the counterattack.

- Yes, we conceded two breakaway goals. Maybe we need to change something ourselves.

- Were you nervous when Igor Shestyorkin replaced Mikko Koskinen?

- It was a difficult situation for Igor. Our focus was on not letting Lokomotiv shoot. However, Lokomotiv hit the post. We got lucky.

- A lot of people thought that Lokomotiv had scored in that incident.

- The referees immediately said that it wasn't a goal, maybe video referees told them. We scored our winning goal practically in the next shift.

- Is Mikko Koskinen celebrating in the dressing room?

- I don't know. When he started celebrating on the ice, I didn't even see where he came from. He hugged everyone.
