Austria’s men’s ice hockey national team met hosts Germany in the second match of the eternally prestigious duel at the Germany Cup 2025 on Saturday in the VR-Bank Landshut Arena and celebrated a convincing 5-2 victory.
The goals for the ÖEHV selection were scored by Vinzenz Rohrer (15th/SH1, 52nd), Paul Huber (32nd), Leon Wallner (41st) and Dominic Zwerger in his 100th international match for Austria (55th). The final duel with Latvia follows on Sunday from 11:00 a.m. The match will be broadcast live again on ORF SPORT +.
Head coach Roger Bader: “Beating Germany in Germany in a sold-out stadium feels good. I have to admit that. I’m happy and proud of the win. I’m even more happy about the performance than the fact that we won, because I believe the win is deserved. Even at this level. We built on the two periods against Slovakia. The performance was outstanding. That makes me proud.”
Dominic Zwerger: “Incredible feeling, the victory in Germany in front of a full house. What the team did today and the fact that I was able to contribute my part makes me all the happier. We haven’t had to hide from the big nations for a few years now. We’ve proven often enough that we can play with everyone and when we give our best performance, like today and the last 40 minutes against Slovakia, then you can see what comes out of it. Now we want to regenerate well and tomorrow against Latvia Continue playing exactly as we left off today.”
