Liga Stavok Big National Team Tour. Russia 25 - Belarus - 4:0

Russia 25 tallied a confident 4:0 win against Belarus in the third match of the 2024 Liga Stavok Big National Team Tour.

Zakhar Bardakov opened the scoring in the fourth minute, before SKA teammate Arseniy Gritsyuk doubled the lead not long later.

Gritsyuk then secured his brace in the second minute of the second stanza, hitting the jackpot on the powerplay. Maxim Sorkin rounded the scoring off in the 36th minute when tipping SKA defenseman Ivan Vydrenkov's effort in.

Our standout goaltender Artemiy Pleshkov stopped all 35 Belarusian shots he faced to record his third shutout on the bounce!
