    Goal for Medvescak Zagreb!


    With a shot from the right circle into the left bottom corner BILL THOMAS surprises Galimov and makes it 4-2 Medvescak! An important goal just when Atlant seemed to find back into the match!

    Goal for Atlant!


    And suddenly Atlant are able to cut the deficit to just one goal! A shot by Alexander Kadeikin from the right wing is blocked by Dekanich who allows a rebound and then EVGENY ARTYUKHIN somehow gets the puck over the goal line from short distance in the duel with the last defender!

    Assisted by Alexander Kadeikin and Rafael Batyrshin.

    Goal for Medvescak Zagreb!


    With a pretty strange goal Medvescak get a two-goal advantage in this game for the first time! Guest goalie Galimov wasn't able to stop a hard shot by Charles Linglet from the left circle and allowed a rebound which was used by MATT ELLISON from short distance who scored with his back to the net and not even looking towards it!

    Assisted by Charles Linglet.

    Goal for Medvescak Zagreb!


    For the second time in this match Medvescak gain the lead just after a winning a face off and again they surprise the camera team in the arena. Charles Linglet came from the right circle, skated behind the net and gave a perfect cross-pass to MATT ELLISON who just had to deflect the puck past the goalie with the tip of his stick – 2-1 Medvescak!

    Assisted by Charles Linglet.

    Goal for Atlant!


    SERGEI SHMELYOV scored the equalizer for Atlant in what looked like a rather harmless attack. He received a long pass by Alexander Kadeikin at the Medvescak blue line, skated a few steps and fired the puck into the right corner past the completely surprised home goalie Dekanich! What a shocker for the Bears!

    Assisted by Alexander Kadeikin and Evgeny Artyukhin.

    The Croatians win the following face off in the Atlant third and after a short pass to the right by Mike Iggulden it is MIKE GLUMAC who beats Gallimov from short distance to score the early 1-0 lead for the home side!

    Assisted by Mike Iggulden.
