	60:00	Game over.
	59:46	A shot from a half right position by the guests goes wide.
	59:29	The guests will continue without their goalie but with an additional forward.
	59:29	Timeout Traktor!
	59:29	Only half a minute left to play and guest goalie Garnett is still in his net.
	58:45	The guests were forced to restart their attack behind their own net which cost them valuable seconds.

	48:23	After a nice pass towards the blue line one of the guest frowards had a shot on goal from just left to the Dynamo net, blocked by Yeryomenko in the last moment!
	47:20	Next opportunity for the guests but the shot from a half left position was stopped by Yeryomenko.
