Avangard in Omsk loses to Lokomotiv in the match of the pre-season tournament after two periods

On Sunday, August 20, Omsk hockey players play the first match of the home pre-season tournament in memory of Viktor Blinov.

Their opponent in this game is Lokomotiv. After two periods, the guests win, the score is 4:0. And after the first segment they were already leading 3:0.

On August 20, Avangard meets at home in the first match of the pre-season tournament in memory of Viktor Blinov with Lokomotiv and concedes after the second period 1:4. Igumnov scored the only goal for the Omsk team so far.

On paper, the composition of the Siberians looked somewhat weaker than usual – for example, without center forwards Vlentin Pyanov and new legionnaire Ryan Spooner. Whether this was such an idea or a forced move is not yet clear.

As a result, the guests opened the scoring very quickly – in the third minute Yelesin scored, Likhachev and Tesanov assisted him. Further, the majority helped them when Bush retired from the hawks. Gernat converted the advantage. Well, 3-0 in favor of the “waymen” became in the majority when Tkachev was removed. The same Tesanov scored here from the transfer of Cherepanov. Interestingly, in terms of shots, the results of the period were not so critical for Avangard – 12:19 in general and 5:7 on target in favor of the opponent.

In the second period, already in the 21st minute of the game, the “railroad workers” scored another goal. After that, Omsk, of course, tried to win back Already on the 34th minute, Ivan Igumnov finally “soaked” the score, Panyukov and Telegin passed to him here. Alas, it was not possible to develop success before the break. 1:4 – with such figures on the scoreboard the period ended.

It is worth noting that for dramatic reasons – due to the funeral of the hockey player Rodion Amirov, who died of cancer – one of the participants, Salavat Yulaev, did not come to Omsk on the first day of the tournament. Accordingly, his game with Barys was not even postponed, but canceled. “Rebels” will arrive to us only on the evening of August 21st. As a result, the Ufa team gets a forfeit loss, Barys automatically got 2 points.

Another fifth participant of the tournament is Neftekhimik.

Earlier we wrotethat the former general manager of Avangard Omsk left the club.
