Fans saw the first goal by the middle of the first period. Nikolay Kulemin threw with an uncomfortable hand and hit the net.

At the start of the second period, Salavat Yulaev missed the counter-blow and the goal of Valentin Pyanov. Then the home team won the powerplay and capitalized on it. Evgeny Chesalin was accurate - 2: 1. It was followed by a positional attack, which ended with Naumenkov's brilliant throw from the blue line - 2: 2.

The third period turned out to be goalless. In overtime, it took the Siberians less than a minute to finish the match with a victory — the second defeat of Tomi Lamsa's players this season against Sibir.
