    1st period finished.
     
    Slovan had much more attacks so far, but Vladivostok was able to deal with an opportunity and score a nice goal, that's unfortunate for home fans. Admiral's kontra attacks are mostly dangerous, so this is a great match after 20 minutes.
    Stay with us after the break too!
    ----
     
    20:01
    Start of 2nd period.
     
    21:50

    23:00
    Hudacek was looked to be fouled by a defender, but no reward. Admiral slid ahead for an attack, but defenders won this time too.
     
    23:20
    The first minutes are quite hectic so far, the only one real chance was missed by Gynge who scored the one and only goal today.

    24:38

    26:30
    Bratislava remained in attacking mood, Admiral is now under pressure. The commercial break has just started.
     
    27:20
    Bakos got the puck in the middle, had an imminent shot after turning around, Ivannikov saved with his body.

    Ugarov is trying hard on the left side and got the puck from a defender but soon lost it as well.
     
    30:10
    Sigalet got a puck but he slid to offside by some centimeters.
     
    30:40

    31:20

    36:15
    Admiral can clearly thank a lot for Ivannikov today.
     
    37:10
    Miklik is penalised for 2 minutes from Slovan. Vladivostok can play 2 minutes in power play. Reason: roughing.
     
    38:44
    Goal for Admiral!
    After a huge shot by Osipov from the right which went wide, the puck bounced back in front of GYNGE and he bombed it immediately into the net from the left! 1-2!
     
    40:00
    2nd period finished.
     
    The end of the period became great for Vladivostok, they scored the leading goal 1:16 from the end in power play. The goal was really interesting, Osipov shot from the right side, the puck bounced back from the board behind the goal, landed already on the other side where Gynge was standing and he immediately bombed it into the mostly empty goal.
    Slovan had more attacks, but in this period they were not as dominant as in the first one.
    Stay with us for the rest of the match!

    60:00
    Game over.
     
    This match was quite interesting and very exciting. The first period was commanded by Slovan, however Admiral took the lead with a kontra-attack goal.
    The second one was equal like its result.
    The final period brought exciting game, many many shots, but Admirals third goal was crucial. After it they could score several more ones to pulverise the opponent. Vladivostok really deserved this win and the 3 points with it.
    Final results:
    Slovan – Admiral: 1-6!
    Thanks for attention!
