On Tuesday, 27 February, the first quarter-final of Olimp Cup of Russia 2017/18 took place in Khabarovsk at Lenin Stadium. SKA-Khabarovsk hosted Shinnik from Yaroslavl and lost in the post-match penalty shoot-outs – 1:4.

The home team made a gift to all spectators and arranged free access to the stadium. In spite of the cool weather it was hot on the pitch: none of the clubs were in the defensive and supporters could watch attacking football. The teams were not able to determine the winner over 90 minutes of full time. During extra time the score did not change as well. And in the post match shoot-outs the club from Yaroslavl proved to be stronger.

The opponent of FC Shinnik in the semi-final will be determined tonight in the match Amkar- Avangard.
