    The Russian anthem is being played at this moment.
     
    Novosibirsk is playing in dark blue, Mytishchi in yellow.
     
    00:01
    Game started.
     
    01:20
    By the broadcast, unfortunately no reporter voice, neither running clock can be seen, so the time sheets are not going to be punctual.
     
    01:20
    Nesterov injured after a crash with an opponent.
     
    01:20
    Dyblenko is penalised for 2 minutes from Mytishchi due to roughing. I believe it's going to be more than a simple 2 minutes. Dyblenko is leaving the field and the hall, it can be a terminal exclusion due to hitting with his stick and causing head injury. In the penalty box another person is sitting.
     
    01:20
    Nesterov also leaves the hall.
     
    03:00
    No dangerous shots or chances yet, Levitsky is sitting in the box I think for 5 minutes, but there is no text on it unfortunately.
     
    04:50
    Velikov had a shot from the left, Koskinen deflected it, mainly Atlant is leading attacks.
     
    06:20
    Nesterov was also sent off for misconduct 5+20 minutes earlier. Now both teams are full strength.
     
    06:45
    Engqist had a nice shot in the middle, Koskinen guided his net. In these minutes, Sibir is attacking mostly.
     
    07:05
    Another penalty for Kadeykin for 2 minutes. Power play for Novosibirsk now.
     
    07:20
    Huge and dangerous shot by Monya from the left side, Borisov was able to kick it out with his right leg!
     
    07:50
    Koskiranta had a very close shot from the left, near the blue zone, Borisov deflected it.
     
    08:40
    Kopeikin had a 1 in 1 against the goalkeeper, Borisov won the battle again. Several dangerous shots by the home team.
     
    09:15
    Atlant escaped these 2 minutes down without goal, it was close more times.
     
    09:45
    Koltsov had a superb shot and right after it Soshnikov had a shot from the right, Koskinen guided his net bravely.
     
    10:40
    Sannikov got away with the puck, fired from the middle, Borisov saved with his body. Good match!
     
    12:25
    Kablukov had a close shot, Koskinen deflected it, but a penalty in sight.
     
    12:30
    Kablukov got a penalty shot for the foul against him before. He tried it from the left, Koskinen closed the angle in the last moment, so the big chance is missed. Faceoff!
     
    13:50
    Enlund had a distant shot from the left, slightly wide.
     
    14:40
    Ignatuskin had a strong shot from the left, Borisov deflected it once again.
     
    16:20
    Play is on the midfield now, no real actions.
     
    17:45
    Monya had a trial, then Lehtera fired the puck from the middle, Borisov guided his net as common.
     
    19:05
    Koskiranta had a strong trial, Borisov won the battle again from the left.
     
    20:00
    1st period finished.
     
    The first period started with those two quick penalties, but the match became great afterwards. Many attacks, shots, a penalty shot coloured the game, but the goal is still absent.
    Stay with us at this exciting match after the break!
    ----
     
    The teams are ready for the second attempt.
     
    20:01
    Start of 2nd period.
     
    21:00
    First attack was by Sibir, Koskiranta was tackled before shooting, now the play is at the other goal.
     
    22:10
    Great chance to score, Borisov saved the shot of Ignatuskin!
     
    22:40
    Another superb save by the goalkeeper after the shot of Karamnov from the right wing!
     
    23:15
    Artyukhin had a shot from the right from not a good angle, Koskinen was on his place and blocked it with his body.
     
    23:45
    Play is running in front of the visitors' net, but missed chance by Karavayev in the middle, he shot the air, not the puck.
     
    26:15
    Commercial break now, game stopped for a minute.
     
    26:55
    Kugrishev had a shot in the middle, it was strong, Borisov saved it with his stick!
     
    28:00
    Velikov had a distant shot from the left, Koskinek guided his net with his legs.
     
    29:30
    Monya is lying on the ice after a foul, penalty in sight, I hope he was not injured!
     
    29:30
    Monya also has a head injury, losing his helmet too. He is leaving the hall as well.
     
    29:30
    Batyrshin is leaving the hall, it clearly must be a 5+20 or a terminal exclusion. The referees are discussing.
     
    29:30
    Trubachev is also leaving the ice going into the restroom. Is it a double penalty like yesterday? No, Batyrshin is back to the ice, so it was a misunderstanding by the referees. So Trubachev is sent off with 5+20 minutes, Batyrshin not.
     
    30:20
    Kugrishev had a shot from the middle, but a bit too wide, the defenders grab the puck after it.
     
    30:45
    Kudroc repeated the shot in the middle, Borisov saved, the puck slid beyond the blue line, so brand new attack must be built up.
     
    31:50
    Lehtera missed the chance of the match, had a trick swinging across right in front of Borisov, but the goalkeeper was able to block his shot from the left.
     
    33:00
    Ozhiganov, then Lehtera had a dangerous shot while being in power play from the right, both were deflected by Borisov. Sibir still cannot deal with this big chance.
     
    34:40
    Kugryshev shot from the left wing position, Borisov held it in his hands. Now commercial break is running.
     
    36:30
    Atyushov is out for high sticking. 2 minute power play for Novosibirsk again.
     
    37:00
    It's not a long time when Atlant can play in full strength today.
     
    37:10
    Shmelyov is sent off with 5+20 minutes. This match is unbelievable so far, the third time, when a visitor player was sent off with 5+20 penalty. Now double advantage for Sibir!
     
    37:25
    Kugrishev shot from the right, Borisov pushed the puck out with his arms.
     
    37:40
    The 5 against 3 is gone. Kudroc is sent out for penalty for the next 2 minutes. 4 against 3 now.
     
    38:35
    4 against 4, Atyushov is back on the ice.
     
    40:00
    2nd period finished.
     
    The second period is over. Many rough moments, many penalties, less chances. Still no goals, but the fight is large, stay with us for the 3rd period!
    ----
     
    The teams are on the ice and ready for the 3rd period.
     
    40:01
    Start of 3rd period.
     
    41:00
    There is still a penalty for Mytishchi, but a great chance by them. Dyblenko had a one in one against Koskinen, the goalkeeper grabbed the shot with his gloves, excellent save!
     
    42:20
    Lehtera had a fired bomb from the right, Borisov won the battle again, it was quite a big chance.
     
    42:47
    Goal for Sibir!
    A superb shot from the right was successful after all, MONYA was sliding from the right towards the middle and took the lead for team Sibir. 1-0! The assist was by Lehtera.
     
    44:00
    Again a missed chance by Novosibirsk! Shumakov had a strong shot from the right wing position, Borisov deflected it with skills.
     
    44:50
    Rukavishnikov had a trial from the right side, his shot was not too strong, Koskinen guided his net.
     
    45:00
    Ignatushkin almost scored the second home goal, but Borisov saved and looks to be injured after falling his head on the ice.
     
    46:20
    Koskiranta wanted to shoot after a pass from the left, but Borisov was faster and put his hands on the puck before it had reached Koskiranta. Now commercial break is on.
     
    47:00
    Mikhnov had a solo from the own zone, had a shot in the middle, Koskinen deflected it as always. It was a big chance.
     
    47:20
    Enlund's pass ahead was too long, faceoff by the goal of Koskinen.
     
    48:50
    Haataja's shot was saved by the goalkeeper, now lots of breaks happen during the game, it's not continuous.
     
    49:55
    After a tackle, Shumakov looks to be slightly injured, out from the ice now.
     
    50:30
    Both teams substituted a lot. Now Koskinen is on the ice, lying after a forward attacked him after a save. The player wasn't seen properly but fortunately no big problems for the goalie.
     
    51:10
    The players are fighting against each other, sometimes harsh moments can be seen, lack of nice hockey is there now.
     
    52:20
    Ignatuskhin had a nice trial from the left wing position, it didn't cause a big headache for Borisov, deflected it.
     
    53:30
    Koskiranta bounced back from the board, maybe Artyukhin pushed him there very hard. Game stopped but no penalty.
     
    54:00
    Monya tried to score from the middle with a distant bomb, Borisov saved it on safe.
     
    54:00
    Penalty for Atalant again. 2 minutes for Mikhnov due to interference.
     
    54:30
    Big chance for Sibir to decide this match while being in power play.
     
    54:40
    Goal for Sibir!
    Novosibirsk could stand on power play situation. Borisov had a nice save, the puck bounced out from him, Gubin started on it but KOPEIKIN reached it on the quickest way and bombed it into the net! The first shot was taken by Kugryshev.
    2-0 for Sibir, the game looks to be decided with this with only a several minutes left.
     
    56:10
    2 minute penalty for Lekomtsev after a fight with an opponent forward. Power play for the guests.
     
    57:45
    Goal for Atlant!
    After a turmoil in one man advantage in front of the net of Koskinen, BATYRSHIN realised where the puck was and pushed it into the goal. 2-1, still a chance for Atlant!
     
    58:20
    No goalkeeper by Atlant Mytishchi, like before.
     
    58:45
    Goal for Sibir!
    I think game is over, KOPEIKIN grabbed the puck, slid into the opponent zone and bombed the puck into the empty net! 3-1
     
    Signal lost in the last minute with Novisibirsk. I hope nothing important is going to happen that time.
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    It was a great final period with 4 goals. After 2-1 Atlant had to risk everything, but they didn't succeed, Kopeikin decided the match.
    Sibir scores 3 points with this match.
    Thanks for attention!
