Arkhangelsk "Vodnik" reached the semi-finals of the Cup of Russia



The final tournament of the Russian Bandy Cup started in Khabarovsk. At the stage of the quarter-final "Vodnik" met with the Kemerovo "Kuzbass"

Arkhangelsk "Vodnik" reached the semi-finals of the Cup of Russia. Initially, the game developed very well for the northerners. Already in the 12th minute, an unstoppable trio - Evgeny Gromnitsky, Denis Lapshin and Pavel Pozhilov - literally rammed the defense of the Siberians. The last of them opened the scoring in this match - 1:0. Kemerovo residents were able to respond to this with two accurate shots and take the lead - 1:2.

In matches of this level, the realization of every moment, including set pieces, is of great importance. It was the "standards" that allowed the "yellow-greens" not only to level the score, but also to create a good reserve in it - 5:2. It seemed that the last twenty minutes of the meeting Arkhangelsk will calmly control the ball and confidently bring this fight to victory. However, they made three gross mistakes in defense and a few seconds before the final whistle allowed the Siberians to transfer the game to extra time - 5:5.

Next, the opponents had to play two halves of 10 minutes before the "golden" goal. At this time, each of the teams in turn had a numerical advantage, but could not use it. Just a few moments before the end of extra time, when it seemed that a penalty shoot-out was inevitable, Pavel Pozhilov scored a much-needed goal from the pass of Yevgeny Dergaev and took his team to the semi-finals of the competition.

In the semi-finals, which will take place on September 17, Vodnik will face Enisey Krasnoyarsk. Beginning at 10:00 Moscow time, informs the Ministry of sports of the Arkhangelsk region.
