In the duel of the old masters in the ice hockey Oberliga Süd, SC Riessersee won 6: 3 at EV Füssen on Friday evening.
Luca Allavena scored his first professional goal.
You can say what you want about the people of Füssen, but they are also very unlucky.
The SC Riessersee is not one of their favorite opponents by default and then they always meet the Werdenfels at inconvenient times.
The Allgäu recently lost five out of six games.
And the SCR really does not serve as a build-up opponent.
The team has all sorts of problems of its own - mainly of a personal nature - but the team gets one thing consistently throughout the season: they are competitive in almost every game.
It doesn't matter whether professionals have to be quarantined or (like this time) top striker Eetu-Ville Arkiomaa and a few others are injured.
The SCR reliably disposes of such stumbling blocks.
Also in the Allgäu.
The Garmisch-Partenkirchner won 6: 3.
Füssen may not be the benchmark right now.
The EVF is penultimate and recently lost a game (against Lindau).
Nevertheless, you have to master such a combative group, as Riessersee did in the first half hour.
To get an impression of what it looked like in the first third, maybe a turn to tennis.
No matter how hard you hit the tennis wall, it won't give in.
And that tennis wall was the SCR.
He reliably sent the few Füssen attacks back in the other direction.
The only goal in the first 40 minutes (Marc Sill's 1: 3) was a precise shot into the near corner during a counterattack.
Happened from time to time.
Double parade by Böhm even amazes the opponent
At this point you can safely praise the new goalkeeper.
Michael Böhm's contract is only valid until the end of January.
Of course he would like to stay longer.
Böhm showed what one likes to read about goalkeepers in a scouting report.
While others are reluctant to leave their natural habitat (their gate and the two or three meters next to it), he curves around surprisingly self-confidently in the risk areas.
SCR trainer George Kink has also observed how much fun he already has in training.
If this translates into performance (as in Füssen), all the better.
If Böhm continues to catch this well, SCR managing director Pana Christakakis will have to check the bank account again to see whether the whites and blues can keep him longer.
Even the people of Füssen were astonished in appreciation at his double parade at the start of the last section.
At this point, the sloppiness of the guests had long since begun.
Well, who would blame them?
The first four goals by Florian Vollmer (through the legs outnumbered), Alexander Eckl (rebound in the empty box), Robin Soudek (one of his feared direct take-offs) and Nick Endreß (with two more men) reach Riessersee very quickly.
Andreas Becherer, the Füssen coach, found two of them much too easy.
He could never criticize struggle, will, or attitude.
With banal things like pushing opponents away from the goal, things look different at the EVF.
Significant deficiencies came to light.
The last few minutes were symbolic of third three: great wilderness on the ice.
The teams shot four hits - evenly distributed.
One is worth picking out.
Of course, Luca Allavena's - his first professional goal.
Accordingly, he cheered after his sniff in an empty Füssen case.
