Forecast our resident expert Ildus Khusnullin justified: “Ak Bars” series won the “Motorist” with a score of 4-1. But the fifth game of the first confrontation and eight teams, “East” prepared by the same thrust as the previous four. Correspondent sports edition KazanFirst witnessed how Kazan made out a ticket to the quarterfinals of the Gagarin Cup.
By the beginning of the match in Kazan became clear that the “green derby” in the current playoffs will not be “Salavat Yulaev” losing “Metallurg” in the fifth meeting, thus lost in the series with a score of 1-4 and finished the season. And it became clear that a potential rival “Ak Bars” in quarterfinal Gagarin Cup will play in the first round at least six matches.
However, at this very quarterfinals citizens a need to get more. And it is desirable – not to go to the sixth match to a little more rest before the next series. Zinetula Bilyaletdinov makes only one change in the composition – injured in the previous match Michael Sergei Kostitsyn Varnakova changes. Everything else – as in the fourth game.
But Anatoly Emelin three changes: defender Yegor Zhuravlev, central Igor Emeleeva and winger Alexander Nesterov. Instead, the application Alexander Loginov, Vitaly Popov and called from HC “Lipetsk” Alexey Efimov.
After a five and a half minutes after the start of the meeting there is a reason to say that the replacement itself Emelin justified: Popov clearly uses a gross mistake Jacob Rylova.
Pounce this that led to the goal offensively, became perhaps the first sortie “Motorist” in the area of Kazan. “Ak Bars” by this time was leading 1: 0 – exactly one minute after starting face Azevedo and Moller had exemplary output “two in one”, and the Swede did not leave a goalkeeper Jakub Kovář chance.
Kazan wholly owned advantage of already having to play in the majority. By the way, if not the first violation of the match, did not rule out that Azevedo scored the second goal would.
By the middle of the 13th minute of the first period in the passive guests for three violations, but “Ak Bars” in the majority, to put it mildly, does not shine. And the score is still 1: 1, although “owners look fresher rivals. But for the freshness of winning the match, no one will need to score. And 45 seconds before the siren at the break of the 45th issue of “Ak Bars” Moeller looped the first 20-minute – 2: 1. Moreover, such a goal, after which we can say: Kovarzh and sometimes wrong.
In defense of “Ak Bars” is also not without sin, but removing Rylova early in the second period costs for owners without serious consequences – the score remained unchanged. And the nature of the game does not change: Kazan confidently control the course of the meeting.
The most interesting part begins after Kirill Petrov crosses the third goal against Kovarzha. Oh, do not accidentally Bilyaletdinov raised this three-fourth of the change in the third! Let me remind you, in the fourth game was sparkling finish the trio started the victory of Kazan. And in the episode with a goal in the fifth game link Burmistrov faster than their opponents.
Soon owners receive benefits already fifteen minutes “five to three.” It would seem to solve all before the second break and get ready for the next series. But “Ak Bars” true to himself forgives opponent. However, “forgive” – not quite true: Kovarzh great. Even without a stick, which he had for some time lost, the goalkeeper, “Motorist” saved his team.
Guests similar courtesy to respond and do not think, when at the junction of the second and third periods on the bench the penalty with a difference of 6 seconds are Nikulin and rings. And if the first 11 seconds of the majority, before the second break, the “Motorist”, playing in six field against three “leopard”, score is not obtained, then a minute after the start of the twenty-third period, guests are able to reduce the deficit – the format of “six to three “returned no results.
Here’s the fun begins! Guests persistently climb to score, but mindful of the rears and not giving “Ak Bars” opportunities to counterattack. Rivals in alternate manages fixed in the attacking zone, while hockey is hard on the verge of a foul, but the referee’s whistle for the time being silent. Perhaps Vladimir Denisov thought that it would be before the end of the game, but not, for 4.08 referee saw his actions violation. However, after 19 seconds after the Denisova in the box for the bad guys going and fishermen push rival club.
Ending issued nervous, but a full-fledged assault on the “Motorist” does not work: the siren outputs “Ak Bars “in the quarterfinals of the Gagarin Cup. Opponent in the next round of the playoffs will be determined after the end of the two other series on the “East”, “Siberia” – “Tractor” and “Vanguard” – “Barys”. The first match of the quarter-finals – March 13 in Kazan.
