With a four-point weekend, the Geretsrieder ice hockey team is entering the four-week mandatory Corona break: After their 7-2 home win on Friday against EHC Königsbrunn, the River Rats lost 5-6 on Sunday in a turbulent match at EC Pfaffenhofen (1: 1, 1: 2, 3: 2) after extra time.
In the 5-6 defeat after extra time in Pfaffenhofen, the River Rats got at least one point in their fourth away game for the third time.
The game in the half-open Pfaffenhofen stadium was severely affected by thick fog.
Josef Reiter was the best ESC goalscorer of the evening with three goals.
Pfaffenhofen / Geretsried
- "I am satisfied with one point, because the team showed good morale," said coach Rudi Sternkopf, who used all of his players and let them play with four blocks.
Ondrej Horvath and Stephan Englbrecht, who had recently suffered, were also there.
However, the ESC coach struggled with the conditions in the half-open Pfaffenhofen ice stadium: “There was extreme fog.
I saw almost nothing of the game for two thirds of the time.
And there were some discussions with the referee as to whether the match shouldn't be broken off. "
That would have been better at least for Martin Morczinietz: The council keeper was attacked so hard by an opponent in the tenth minute that he had to go off the ice with a leg injury.
For him came junior goalkeeper Johanna May, "who did her job well" (Sternkopf).
The Geretsrieder made up a 1: 3 deficit in the second and at the beginning of the last third, and took the lead 5: 3.
But in the last seven minutes the Ice-Hogs managed to equalize 5: 5 and also scored the lucky winner in extra time.
The River Rats were happy to win points.
"Nevertheless, the mood was a bit depressed," said Sternkopf, "because nobody knows whether the season will really continue in four weeks."
