One goal is enough to win the game: Miners and Penguins have an even start to the final. In the second game, on Sunday (6 p.m.) in Königsbrunn, the Peißenbergers are now under more pressure than their opponents to win.

Whoever wins three times in the series secures the cup and the championship title. The Miners received their only penalty in the first third (14th), but the penalty killing worked well. The penguins started the middle third with verve. They followed up a hit on the crossbar (21st) with the opening goal: Marco Sternheimer passed across to Toms Prokopovics.
