Dinamo Minsk - SKA

Dinamo Minsk - SKA - 1:5

23 February 2024

SKA emphatically got back to winning ways in the 2023/2024 KHL regular season, comfortably seeing off Dinamo Minsk 5:1 away in Belarus.

In truth, the game was practically over as a contest in the opening stanza, as excellent goals from Vasily Glotov, Sergei Sapego and Sergei Tolchinsky firmly put SKA in the driving seat.

Further impressive markers from Nikolai Polyakov and Tolchinsky well and truly put the match beyond Minsk’s reach.

The Belarusian hosts did ruin Nikita Serebryakov’s shutout hopes in the 58th minute, but it made little difference to the outcome.

SKA will now prepare to host Kunlun Red Star in Saint Petersburg on Sunday in the final match of the regular season. Puck-drop is scheduled for 17:00 local time.
