Molot Perm came from behind to beat SKA-Neva 3-2 in regulation, settling it with the only goal of the third period. The hosts were shut out through 20 minutes and still walked off with two points.
SKA-Neva opened the scoring in the 16th minute and led 0-1 after the first. Molot answered with a two-goal middle frame, drawing the period even at 2-2 after 40 minutes, before the winner arrived in the 49th minute to make it 3-2.
The numbers frame it plainly: three goals across the last 40 minutes against one for the visitors, with the decisive marker coming in the third. Individual scorers were not recorded on the sheet, but the period splits — 0-1, 2-1, 1-0 — tell the story of a team that got stronger as the game went on.
