Belarus - June 15, 2020 19:20Belarusian FinalsViten closer to the title: 2-1 in the seriesby Luca Ranocchiari - Futsalplanet.com editor
Three games have gone, one or two more to come. This will depend on Viten Orsha performance in their next away final in Gomel on next thursday, when regular season winners VRZ Gomel will desperately try to force the 5th and last game and get the dreamed national title.
The third game played yesterday in Orsha went to the local team (4-2) thanks to the double signed by Evgeny Peremitin and Artem Ros. Viten is therefore leading 2-1 in the finals, after the first crazy extra time win in game 1 (an unbelievable double penalty caused by Artem Zolotukhin, who touched the ball with his hand in the very last second of the second extra time half, 3 minutes each in Belarus, thinking the game was already over) thanks to the (again) Artem Ros perfect double penalty (actually very close to the penalty spot).
Revenge in game 2: Evgeny Klochko's double in the second half gave VRZ Gomel the temporary 1-1 tie in the series, after Yuri Rabyko had scored Viten advantage in the first part of the game.
Bronze medal for FC Stalitsa, after two deserved wins vs BCH Gomel. The side from Minsk today announced many market news regarding their roster and bench. Beto says goodbye after about five seasons in Minsk, while the Ukrainian Dmitry Kameko is the new coach. Leaving the roster also Gibadullin and Lazyuk. Will stay: Olshevsky, the Gritsyna brothers and captain Gorbenko. Curious to mention that Kameko leaded BCH Gomel in this season just defeated by Stalitsa in the bronze medal pairing.
So, get ready for game 4. In the meanwhile, have a look at the first three finals highlights
