Black day for Meshkov Brest

Meshkov Brest finished the regular season. This match did not decide anything: last Wednesday SKA defeated Kronon (52:28) and guaranteed itself the first place. However, meetings between Brest and Minsk are always important.

The match began dynamically: the opponents began to play openly and with an emphasis on attack. Eight goals were scored in the starting five minutes - 4:4. But then something broke in the game Meshkov Brest. A series of unrealized chances allowed SKA to break away by four goals, after which Eduard Koksharova requested the first time-out. Unfortunately, it didn't help turn the game around. The army team kept four-five balls of advantage, and closer to the break, thanks to a series of excellent saves by Konstantin Kovalev, they made +9.

After returning from the locker room, the situation worsened even more. It was a real rainy day for our guys. The game managed to be adjusted only in the last ten minutes. Zabolotin helped a little with his saves, Kuran, Matijasevic and Budzeika became more active in the attack. This made it possible to close the gap. However, Brest could no longer claim victory ...

Well, now it is necessary to draw the right conclusions. Playoffs ahead!
