Russia U20 wins 4-nation tournament in Podolsk

Maxim Shalunov scored at 4:38 of the overtime period to win the last game of the tournament 3-2 for Russia. Russia and Sweden had both beaten Finland and Czech Republic so this game also functioned as a final.

Shalunov’s game-winner was a beauty. A powerful shot in the far top corner assisted by Zakhar Arzamastsev and Pavel Kulikov.

Shalunov had also opened the scoring at 5:47. Sweden’s John Vestin tied it at 12:53 and Sweden took the lead when William Karlsson scored at 41:13 after a scoreless second period. The Swedish lead lasted for 15 minutes until Daniil Apalkov tied it with a little more than three minutes remaining of regulation.

Finland beat Czech Republic 7-2 to finish third.

Swedish 1994 born forward Sebastian Collberg won the top scorer award with 3 goals and 3 assists.
