Hockey players of Magnitogorsk Metallurg, yielding to the Omsk Vanguard on their ice with a score of 1: 3 in the final period, won a meeting with a result of 4: 3 and led in the semifinal series.
The most spectacular game of the championship and the current playoffs were issued in Magnitogorsk local Metallurg and Omsk Avangard. The meeting abounded with bright episodes, therefore the script turned out to be appropriate. Thanks to the skill of Artyom Chubarov and Vladimir Pervush, the “avant -garde” already led 2-0 in the starting period, but this gap reduced this gap before the first ice pouring.
In the second segment, Magnitogorsk played for 10 minutes in the majority and had a lot of excellent opportunities to restore parity, but could not score. But Omsk hockey players succeeded in one of the counterattacks - this is Anton Kuryanov with knowledge of the matter, he directed the puck at the target and the Vanguard led - 3: 1.
In the final third, the teams continued to bother the goalkeepers, but the metallurgists were more successful in this enterprise, who, eight and a half minutes before the final siren, offended the Omsk guard of the gate of Alexander Fomichev (distinguished Evgeny Gladsky, Nikolai Kulemin and Alexander Seluyanov).
As a result, Metallurg won the match with a score of 4: 3 and led in the series - 2: 1. The fourth meeting will be needed in the dispute of CSKA and Ak Bars, since the army team won the Kazan club on their ice on Sunday with a score of 3: 2 and on Monday will try to equalize the score with the current champion. Also on the first day of the week, Metallurg and Avangard will be played again.
