Shortly afterwards, Vladislav Anufriyev finished off an attacking move and scored on the rebound to tie the game.

Neither team managed to find a winner in the third period, sending the game to overtime. The visitors proved sharper in the extra period. With just 41 seconds remaining, Ruslan Furman scored the decisive goal to give his team the victory.
