Biysk's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Korolev the free kick. After a rather tough play, Biysk's Felix Gazzaev got a free kick in the 2nd minute. Leonid Fufaevskiy might have been able to make a better finish in the 4th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Aleksandr Antonov. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Leonid Fufaevskiy ran back to his position shaking his head. When Dmitriy Gurovskiy fell near the penalty area in the 5th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.

In the 19th minute, Grigoriy Nizaev got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. If Leonid Fufaevskiy had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Though ot was a great shot Biysk's keeper Aleksandr Antonov was sill able to block leaving the score board unchanged.
