I’m proud of my team. We were disciplined all through the game, nobody panicked after the first goal and in the end we got a great win. Voynov didn’t play in this one because he has a minor injury, we expect him back in the next game. As for Zernov, he had surgery and will likely miss five or six months.
We couldn’t beat a well-organized team because we didn’t have the right spark up front and we lacked concentration at times. It was tough for us to break down a well-drilled defense. But games like this can only help us, we will learn from it.
