    What was hard to imagine in the 50th minute, when SKA led 4:2, that happened: Lokomotiv won the second game of this pair, and equalized in aggregate. In the overtime SKA was the better team with far more attacks, but Sanford stopped every attempts, and from a quick counter Kartayev scored the deciding one in the end. That was a great reverse by Lokomotiv, so they've earned this victory.
