After the first quarter-finals it looked like a walk through, but now the SG Schliersee / Miesbach 1b has to play the decisive game against EHC Straubing.
Miesbach - After a clear 6-1 home win in the first game of the playoff quarter-finals, SG Schliersee / Miesbach 1b failed to close the bag at EHC Straubing. The guests fell behind in the first third with 1: 4, struggled to 4: 4, but had to give up 4: 5 in the end. So the decision to go to the semi-finals on Friday, February 28th. Then the third game against Straubing takes place again at the Schlierach.
How the defeat came about, SG coach Horst Forster was more than annoyed. "The referees blew the game off with an announcement," he said. “They even say that they whistle for their region. Until the 10th minute it was a fair game, then the referees put themselves in the center. ”However, 1b must also accept the accusation of oversleeping the first third and not using their chances for over 60 minutes. Dominik Willibald was able to equalize the 1-0 of the home side. Then Straubing scored three times within three minutes. "At the second goal, only the water bottle fell from our goal, the puck was not in it at all," Forster reported.
The referees gave the goal anyway and so it went from 1: 4 in the second third. Now Markus Veicht stood for the unfortunate Markus Voit in the goal of the guests. The district cracks did not give up and at five-on-five they strangled Straubing again and again in their zone. Matthias Stumböck and Florian Tippl gave hope with their goals to 3: 4. In the final third, Stumböck even equalized to 4: 4.
Forstner: "Clench your lips at such referees"
Then the referees intervened again and Willibald received a 2 + 2 penalty, while the winning goal of the Straubinger fell to 5: 4. “The referees only looked at our bank during the phase and waited until they could hand out a bank fine. It's not fun that way, ”said Forster. However, he did not want to detract from Straubinger's performance. "They did it well, switched quickly when they owned discs, and then overran us."
The guests tried again, taking the keeper off the ice in favor of a sixth field player, but the puck did not want to cross the line. “I can't blame the team, everyone tried everything, but with such referees you have to clench your lips and be cleverer. Nevertheless, we still have everything in our own hands, ”said Forster. The winner will meet SG Bayersoien / Peiting 1b on Sunday.
