How the game unfolded
No detailed period scores or goal-scorers are available. The 7-3 scoreline reflects a one-sided contest in which Tambov dictated the tempo from the opening face-off. Dizel managed three goals of their own but were consistently on the back foot against a well-organised Tambov attack.
