Head coach of Dynamo Minsk Sergey Brylin summed up the emotional meeting with Moscow teammates:

- Like the previous game, this one was very emotional, with a lot of deletions. The initiative moved from one team to another. In the third period, they again failed to bring the match to victory. Then we got the opportunity to snatch it in overtime, but in the minority we missed what I think was a simple goal. But basically, I liked the game.

The expert also spoke about the principled nature of the confrontation between the two “Dynamo”, which has recently been accompanied by a large number of skirmishes and removals.

- I think this confrontation started with the last playoffs, when the teams played against each other. Of course, this leaves a certain imprint on the matches next season. Hockey is an emotional game. I honestly thought a lot about what to say on this issue, but nothing good comes to mind, so I do not want to answer it. This is hockey, this is life, everything happens. Of course, this is an ugly situation. Therefore, I think such a confrontation will continue and there will be enough emotions in the next match, Brylin said.
