In the renamed Nur-Sultan Omsk “Avangard” snatched the first victory of the season

On Friday, September 16, Omsk hockey players played the second paired match with Barys on the road and finally achieved their first victory in the new season. The score of the meeting is 5:2. So the success turned out to be pretty sure.

On Friday, September 16, HC Avangard on the road finally won the first victory of the new season. Barys was defeated with a score of 5:2. It was the second of two paired matches, and in the first Omsk lost 3:5.

It is interesting and curious that the “hawks” found an interesting political event in Kazakhstan. If they played the first match back in Nur-Sultan, then the second – without leaving anywhere, already in Astana. It was on September 16 that the capital was officially renamed back to Astana, having stayed under a different name for 3 years.

As for the match itself, it turned out bright. This time, Avangard in the first period was clearly trying to finish the attacks with good shots. There was an evil focus on the opponent’s goal, as a result, the hosts immediately had problems in their own zone. They tried to push the rivals away and somewhere it was successful. As a result, the Astana team had pucks, but our hockey players still opened the scoring – Zharkov’s pass to the “piglet” was perfectly closed by Dergachev, 1:0.

Before the break, the score still managed to become 2:1. 2-0 was after a combination of Tkachev and Tolchinsky, when the second became the author of the goal. And soon the hosts responded with Petukhov’s puck.

In the second segment, Omsk realized the majority of Bush – an excellent shot on the bottom. After that, “Barys” changed the goalkeeper, but Boyarkin, who went into the “frame”, missed from the first throw, when Semyon Chistyakov kissed the puck. This, of course, was already grounded for victory.

Even before the end of the period, Avangard managed to develop success a little more on counterattacks. In one of them, the “hawks” scored and it became 5:1 – Bereglazov scored.

True, at the very start the hosts themselves scored – 5:2 after Graham’s goal. But it turned out that this is the final score. The hosts didn’t score further, and Omsk survived even in the minority.

Next, the ex-champions have a match against Traktor on September 19, also on the road.

Earlier we wrotethat Avangard lost away to Sibir 2:3. In that match, the shootouts decided everything.
