The video showed that the puck fully crossed the goal line, and so the referee awarded a goal.

Then, in the 46th minute of the game, after an apparent goal scored by the home team’s forward Martins Karsums (#15), the Avtomobilist head coach requested that the officials examine video footage of the goal for a possible offside. An offside had occurred, and the goal was struck out as a result.
