Strong national league team attacks the gladiators.
Erding - The Erding Gladiators also won the fourth test match - but like last week in the 2-1 win against Dorfen, it was again very close.
It was only in the final third that the Bayern league team defeated EV Dingolfing with 5: 4 goals (1: 1, 1: 1, 3: 2).
In terms of the division into leagues, the Isar Rats are certainly a national division. If you take a closer look at the team, however, there are a lot of players in the squad who have gained a lot of upper league experience in Passau, plus some former Bayern league players. Erding's coach Thomas Vogl was able to muster his strongest squad, with the exception of defender Basti Cramer and striker Marko Babic, and returnees Timo Borrmann was on the squad for the first time. As with the Autumn Cup, the coach played with four rows and regularly gave the perspective players ice age.
The Gladiators got off to a better start, Erik Modlmayr took the lead in the 11th minute. But 27 seconds before the end of the third, Dingolfing equalized with Alex Janzen. A similar picture in the second third: Defender Lars Bernhardt shot Erding in the lead (35th), but 100 seconds before the break Janzen got the 2-2 outnumbered again.
The third section had just begun - two Erdingers were in the penalty box - Petr Sulcik brought Dingolfing 3-2 up after 34 seconds. In the last quarter of an hour it got turbulent. Rudi Lorenz heaved the puck into the net to make it 3: 3 in the 47th minute, but only 39 seconds later the Isar Rats were back in front, this time Oliver Ferstl was the goalscorer. Now the gladiators stepped up their pace again. The committed Dingolfinger performers, who are certainly among the very hot aspirations for promotion, were ultimately brought to their knees after all. In the majority it was newcomer Sebastian Busch who overcame goalkeeper Dennis Jedrus to 4: 4 (51.), and exactly 80 seconds later Busch was there again and marked the 5: 4 winning goal for the Gladiators. In the end it was a deserved success against a really strong opponent,However, one saw with the Erdingers that there is still a lack of fine-tuning. But there is still enough time to find the perfect rows.
