Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Rudolf Lelyak to make the kick off. After some fancy dribbling in the 51st minute, Irakliy Dynkin managed to get in a good position for a shot. Syzran FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Irakliy Dynkin was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Irakliy Charnomskiy breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Valeriy Mamonov made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Rudolf Lelyak in the 60th minute of play. When Rustam Sergeev came up free with the goalie in the 62nd minute, the Arzamas HC fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Rustam Sergeev couldn't finish the play. Rustam Sergeev blasted a shot towards the goal in the 65th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Valeriy Mamonov having to make a save. In the 73rd minute, Roman Kozlovskiy hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 84th minute, German Pronin hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Moisey Shushkevich had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 86th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The supporters of Syzran FC booed when Arzamas HC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 92 match minutes in a wonderful position. Rustam Sergeev didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Arzamas HC's Rudolf Lelyak in the 95th minute got a chance for a shot 95th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Syzran FC's goalie prevented a goal.
