KAZAN, Oct 28, Vadim Kuznetsov. Ak Bars Kazan hockey player Artem Lukoyanov said that the team supports head coach Oleg Znark, and the team is not divided into separate groups. Ak Bars has lost 9 of the last 10 matches in the KHL regular season. According to media reports, there are disagreements between the players in the team. We need to digress from this, more attention to hockey. We have one group — Akbarsovskaya. We are Znarkovsky, Bilyaletdinovsky, Maganovsky, «Lukoyanov told reporters. «Everyone in Ak Bars understands that the situation is difficult. I don’t even remember that it was so. «We always broke, didn't let ourselves fall so low and found adjustments in the game. We almost lack responsibility in defense. Great defense is 50-60% of a team's success. Since we don't score five in attack, it means we need to defend better — skip one, not four. We need to focus on order in defense, «said the Ak Bars player. Lukoyanov spoke about his attitude to the appearance of a sports psychologist in the team. «You can call a cardiologist and a chiropractor. If someone not okay, t appeals. And so here all — men. An athlete is his own psychologist, he can calm and turn himself on. This is definitely not for me,» Lukoyanov added.
