As learned, Chelyabinsk “Tractor” reached Magnitogorsk, where he will play the regular season match of the Fonbet KHL Championship on Wednesday against “Metallurgy” .
Traktor was unable to leave Nizhnekamsk for a whole day after Monday’s match against Neftekhimik (1:2). The charter plane was unable to land in a city in Tatarstan due to weather conditions and headed to another airfield in Samara. A thick fog prevented this. The Traktor’s departure was finally postponed until three in the morning, after which the team reached Chelyabinsk.
After canceling the morning deployment, Traktor left by bus for Magnitogorsk at 10:30 Moscow time. It was impossible to fly there because the city had not yet finished repairing the runway. Additionally, Chelyabinsk Airport was closed in the morning due to heavy snowfall.
Arriving in Magnitogorsk two and a half hours before the match, Traktor will travel to the match with Metallurg without being late or rescheduling the start time of the match.
Watch live broadcast of the Metallurg – Traktor match from 4:50 p.m. Moscow time on the KHL TV channel, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
