Today’s test game of the Zeller Eisbären did not go through full distance. After around half of the game, the match had to be canceled due to a defective gang.
The EKZ now competes without Wilfan, Szypula, Reiner, Rupnik, Cuma and Putnik, but again with the young fishermen (15 years) and Sintschnig (16 years). In the first third, Laibach, as expected, is the tone -wide team. With a full lineup, the top team from the first league of its favorite role against badly decimated polar bears lives up and leads 3-0 after 20 minutes.
The EKZ plays properly, but the gates also continues to make the home team in the middle third. The dragons increase to 5: 0 before Paul Sintschnig wrote for Zell am See for the first time and shortens to 1: 5. After around 30 minutes the game break (at 6-1 for Olimpija). As mentioned, the reason is a defective gang. The two teams still matched a penalty shootout (1-0 for Laibach), after which it is over in the Hala Tivoli and the polar bears have to start their journey home somewhat.
Defender Max Egger “We played very well defensively, the goals we got were to prevent, but we learn from it. At the end of the first third, at the beginning of second thirds we found the game well and played with more self -confidence. We want to attack fully on Tuesday and maybe take the first victory.”
