Neman Grodno took control early and never relinquished it, cruising to a 4-0 regulation win over HC Baranovichi in the Salei Cup. Two first-period goals set the tone, and the home side stayed ahead comfortably from there.
The game followed a clean script for Neman: 2-0 in the first period, then single goals in both the second and third to stretch the lead to 4-0. Baranovichi had no pushback at any stage, as the running score moved from 2-0 to 3-0 to the final 4-0.
The defining number was the zero on Baranovichi's side of the scoreboard. Neman kept the visitors off the board across all three periods, turning a strong start into a stress-free shutout in regulation.
