    Final word – teams were quite equal in every possible aspect during first and second period. That proves a result – it was 2:2 after 40 minutes played. Guests from Zagreb were the better team in third period, but coul not capitalize on their numerous shots. Their goalie saved them in first seconds of overtime, but was beaten once in shootout; on contrary – his colleague on the other side Alexander Sudnitsin managed to stop all three attempts of Medvescak players and extra point deservedly got to hom team.
