The motorist continues his home series, which he did not start in the best way.

Goalkeeper Alikin showed his worst side, who had to be replaced in the middle of the second period after the fourth missed goal. The Yekaterinburg team quickly rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans and regained their lost points in the next match, snatching Victoria from Torpedo in regular time (2:1). The goal was defended by Galkin, who played much more reliably than his teammate.
