Salavat Yulaev lost to Ugra in shootout 1: 2

UFA, 3 October 2017. /Bashinform News Agency, Natalia Ovcharuk/. The Salavat Yulaev’s first match during the second home series started immediately with two penalties. First, the captain of the home team was sent to the penalty box. His bad example was followed by the hockey player of Ugra. This error led to a change in the score. Hartikainen and Kemppainen made an assist to Umark, so badly waited for by Salavat Yulaev’s fans and not realized. And the 20-minute period after the break was marked only by penalties: two per each opponent.

It seemed that the last period would be quite calm. But Anatoly Emelin's team showed its true character, hit the Ben Scrivens’ net and equalized the score. The goal scorer was Pavel Varfolomeev. As a result, the match continued with overtime, and then smoothly transferred into a series of shootouts, which was lost by Salavat Yulaev. The final score on the scoreboard was 1: 2.

The next home match HC Salavat Yulaev will hold against St. Petersburg SKA on October 4.
