MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) was pointed to the IceCube Alert 201021.28 (trigger No 31008065,17h 22m 45.36s , +14d 39m 10.8s, R=0.51) errorbox  32837 sec after notice time and 32892 sec after trigger time at 2020-10-21 15:45:59 UT, with upper limit up to  17.5 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 45 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.9 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 26 deg., longitude l = 37 deg.
