Three points, clean your mouth, go on: The SC Riessersee did not shine at EV Lindau, but won 5-2.
This was also a credit to the new goalie.
Lindau - The range of descriptions is long for games that, to put it mildly, don't knock the audience off their feet.
The teams neutralize each other, only piecemeal on both sides, a muddled game, no structure on either side, heavy fare. In short: The duel of the Oberliga Süd between the EV Lindau Islanders and the SC Riessersee was not a hockey treat, but from a point of view the guests didn't care.
What matters is the result.
And that was true with 5: 2 from the SCR point of view.
SCR has to do without six players
There are also several options for describing this success.
Dirty triumph or work victory.
In short: the SCR somehow muddled through.
It didn't work much with the whites and blues.
The structure of the game left a lot to be desired, as did target control and pass quality.
To a certain extent this is certainly due to the personnel problems.
It was already clear that five men - Eetu-Ville Arkiomaa, Tobias Möller, Anton Radu, Tobias Kircher and Christian Schneider - would be missing.
In addition, the SCR had to do without the ailing goalie Daniel Allavena.
The sponsorship license player from EHC Munich will probably not be absent for a long time.
Michael Böhm thus celebrated his debut in the SCR box.
Let me say so much in advance: It was a strong premiere.
Outnumbering brings Riessersee on track
In contrast, both teams presented themselves poorly, especially in the first ten minutes.
Over and over again unnecessary loss of targets, over and over again inaccurate passes.
The hosts initially improved, pushing the SCR into the defensive third from ten minute onwards.
Only after a penalty against the EVL could the guests take a deep breath.
At the same time they woke up in this majority.
They didn't manage to hit a goal, but that was soon to come.

Strong performance by Michael Böhm
Towards the end of the first and the beginning of the second third, Goalie Böhm's hour struck.
Only in one-on-one and later with a triple chance of the Lindauer did the 23-year-old excel.
Meanwhile, it hit again on the opposite side.
Birthday child Uli Maurer served Florian Vollmer - 2-0.
Speaking of bricklayers and Vollmer.
Together with Robin Soudek, they formed the first offensive line.
And the trio had to work hard, because Coach George Kink called them on the ice again and again.
But even they could not prevent Lindau's double answer (27./32.).
Own goal and hit in the empty box
EVL player Tim Sezemsky was responsible for the third guest goal, who unluckily pushed a cross from Thomas Radu into his own net with his skate.
When Christopher Chyzowski marked the 4: 2 in the second attempt in the 53rd minute, the winner seemed to be certain.
The game was completely decided when Nick Endress from the neutral zone hit the empty goal of the Lindauer, who had exchanged their goalie for a sixth field player.
