The hosts appeared on the site, without really waking up: 0:3 on the pitches of Chess. Then the sleep became deep, 9:14 – the result of three breaks of the guests with an ace from Spodobets in the endgame. Papazov heroically took off on an emergency ball from the fourth zone, but in general Kirillov seemed to have forgotten about his diagonal in the opening set. "Oilman", however, also far from ideal: Sventitskis doesn't always get in tempo with the strikers, what, in particular, allowed Beskrovny and Kurbatov to take two pipes with a block. Ace Rudneva, out of the square, reduces the distance to three points, 16:19, blocking Khlyakin in the fourth zone practically eats up the gap, 19:20.
