IMPORT Сервисный

The first goal in the Euro Hockey Tour 2020 match in Helsinki, Finland - Russia will forever go down in history under the name of Rodion Amirov. In the second minute, the Ufa club's striker, number 27, moved from the right edge to the center of the opponent's zone and made a shot just under the right post - 0: 1.

His partners supported Amirov's goal enthusiasm, and the first break started with a score of 3:0. After that, the Finns added in the attack and hit the net of the 18-year-old goalkeeper Yaroslav Askarov. The Russians reacted to the missed goal properly and increased the gap - 5: 1.

The experienced Finns managed to reduce the gap to three goals: Ere Sallinen practically repeated the goal of Daniil Chaika (fourth in powerplay) from the blue line.

Afanasyev scored the winning goal in the match in the 53rd minute. Igor Larionov's team defeated Suomi's team - 6: 2.

The Russian national team will play the next match with the Swedes on November 7. The beginning is at 16.30 Ufa time to be broadcast on the TV channel "Match TV".
