The ERC Lechbruck offered an appealing performance at the start of the regional league.
That was not enough in terms of points at SC Forst - but the rafters had a big handicap.
Lechbruck
- ERC Lechbruck remained without points at the start of the regional league: At SC Forst, the promoted team had to admit defeat 5: 8 (1: 2, 4: 4, 0: 2).
“Our core group pulled out of the affair well,” said coach Jörg Peters, who was satisfied with the performance of his team.
After all, the newcomer had to do without ten regular employees.
“We don't need to hide in the league.
We are completely competitive ”, says Peters, who is encouraged by the appearance of his protégés at the“ Nature Boyz ”for the upcoming games.
The start with the Forsters was very promising for the ERC.
While the home side failed with a few chances at the well-parried goalie Patrick Dietl, Matthias Köpf used the first chance to 1-0 (4th).
When the majority of the 150 spectators were already ready for a break by the Lechbruckers, the “Nature Boyz” struck.
Andreas Krönauer during a Forster outnumbered game (19th) and Simon Fend (20th) just 21 seconds later gave the hosts a 2-1 lead.
ERC Lechbruck: Promoted team takes a 1-0 lead against Forst
The double blow gave the foresters a noticeable boost.
At the beginning of the central section, the "raftsmen" were under constant fire - which was not without consequences.
Again Fend (22nd), Elias Breidenbach (23rd) and Michael Krönauer, who scored while Forster was outnumbered (24th), gave the home side a 5-1 lead within 98 seconds.
Lechbruck then recovered.
Alexis Gaboury-Potvin brought the guests back to 3-5 with a brace (31st, 33rd).
Klaus Müller only made half a dozen full (34th) for the home side shortly afterwards, but the ERC was not discouraged by that either.
Markus Köpf and Max Ott (40 each) used two penalty times against the “Nature Boyz” shortly before the end of the third to turn the 3: 6 into 5: 6 in just 28 seconds.
In the final section, the Lechbruckers had some counter-chances, but they found their master in SCF goalkeeper Andreas Scholz.
His goalkeeper colleague Dietl had more to do on the other side, who also held up well and destroyed some of the home side's chances.
In the power play hit by Michael Krönauer to 7: 5, however, he had no chance (51st).
One and a half minutes before the end of the game, ERC coach Peters risked everything and took his goalie off the ice.
But his team did not succeed in turning it around.
Instead, Michael Krönauer grabbed the disc and pushed it to the 8: 5 final score in the orphaned Lechbrucker box (60th).
