To the limit!..

“Berkut” could distinguish itself in the first minute of the game, but the shot of Alexander Telegin from the pass of Maxim Kirillov was parried by the goalkeeper of “Bureau K”. Then Dmitry Shishulin came to the forefront, but his powerful shot from five meters went higher than the gate.

The score was printed by the captain Alexey Chegolin, the oldest team player, who was able to send a “shell” into the far bottom corner of the gate, being at the right edge of the area.

Then Evgeny Rodin reminded of himself, who the defenders of the receiving party could not intercept in the penalty area and celebrate their success.

Shortly before the break, Telegin got injured leg, that, however, did not prevent the guest striker to put the aimed blow on the fly, which miraculously didn’t end with an increase in the result on the scoreboard.

Numerous spectators, despite the late hour, were carefully watching the vicissitudes of the struggle - Alexander Kubyshkin in the camp of “Berkut” repeatedly was close to success, but the fortune has ignored him.

As for “Bureau K”, the team of Alexey Sasov kept the defense longer, preferring to save sighting strikes, apparently, for the second half of the meeting.

But after the break, the players of “Berkut” did not intend to give the initiative, although the rivals, like waking up, rushed forward all their forces. If Dmitry Orlov preferred to check the strength of Maxim Rodionov from afar, Alexey Nazarov, Georgy Zhukov and Artem Andreyanov frequently intruded into the alien penalty area.

Time passed, but the score remained unchanged. There was already an open football on the field, but the players squandered moments, one after another. First, “Bureau K” twice had a fiasco (Roman Domakhin could not beat the goalkeeper near the gate, and then Gleb Borodachev did not use the excellent pass from Orlov), and a few minutes later it was the turn of “Berkut”, when Shishulin, being in front of the empty gate, for some reason was not able to close the diagonal pass by Kirillov.

Zhukov invariably was eager to the alien gate, and the receiving party went on the offensive in the five field players. This tactic was successful four seconds (!) before the final whistle, when Borodachev was able to get away from the defender and precisely break into the far corner. But the victory eventually went to the competitors, which continue to chase for the championship title ... 2:1 in favor of “Berkut”.
