"Torpedo" returned to the game from 0:2 and snatched the third victory from "Severstal".

      March 29, 2026 20:39 Sports In Nizhny Novgorod, the fourth match of the first round of the KHL playoffs took place between Torpedo and Severstal, which turned into a real rollercoaster. The first two periods were active, with chances for both teams, but thanks to the excellent work of the goalkeepers, there were no goals scored. The third period became crucial in the game. First, in the 51st minute, Ilya Reingardt from Severstal scored with a precise shot, putting his team ahead. In the 55th minute, Thomas Gregoire increased the lead for the Cherepovets team. However, the white-blues were not thinking of giving up - and immediately after the timeout, a sixth skater replaced the goalkeeper on the ice. Less than 2 minutes before the end of the match, Andrey Belevich reduced the deficit to a minimum, and in the 59th minute, Nikita Shavin, to the loud cheers of the home crowd, equalized the score, bringing Nizhny Novgorod back into the game. The first overtime was marked by mutual attacks, but without results. The fate of the match was decided in the second overtime, literally right after the face-off: at the 13-second mark, Sergey Goncharuk skillfully hit the opponent's net and put Torpedo ahead. The score in the series is 3:1 in favor of Alexey Isakov's team. The next match will take place on March 31 in Cherepovets at the Ice Palace arena (0+). NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has a Telegram channel.
