The team played very good tonight, and we are happy about it. Obviously, there is some bitter taste because of [Ivan] Ukhov injury – hopefully it is not serious. Overall, we dominated from the beginning until the end, we played focused, with big desire and tremendous effort. At the same time we realize that it is just 1-0 and our opponents are very talented. So we will prepare for the rest of the series. I would like to say thank you to the fans who filled the stands. This 5 thousands created great atmosphere, so I expect the same for the next game.
