Stumbled, but not fallen: Peiting's exciting duel with Lindau

If you are a fan of EC Peiting, your heart will beat a little faster at one point or another during these weeks.

At the top division ice hockey team, things just can't go without tension.

That was also evident against Lindau.

Peiting

- Some fans should have had a thought in their heads in the 27th minute: “Not again!” Because the EC Peiting seemed to give up his game.

The ice hockey league team had actually already led 3-0, but EV Lindau came back and reduced it to 2: 3.

And reminded us that the ECP has already given some good leadership this season.

Most recently on Friday against Memmingen.

This story was not repeated on Sunday, although Sebastian Buchwieser's team was still under pressure towards the end of the game.

But the Peitinger made it clear to the Lindau residents: Not like that!

And won 7-4.

In the first third both teams started at high speed.

Martin Hlozek gave the hosts a double lead.

First he converted in the pursuit (14th), then barely two minutes later he used a pass from Nardo Nagtzaam to make it 2-0.

Nagtzaam's double pack at the end

The Peitinger had warmed up - and shot warm.

And also took command at the beginning of the second period.

A shot by captain Andreas Feuerecker sailed past fellow players and opponents - and hit the 3-0.

The ECP had a run.

And stumbled.

Matteo Miller reduced the lead to 1: 3.

And when ECP goalie Florian Hechenrieder's puck ricocheted off again a short time later, Florian Lüsch was ready to shoot.

2: 3.

The safe guide away.

But not the self-confidence of the Peitinger.

They pulled themselves together, defended bravely, played forward quickly.

Daniel Reichert scored to make it 4-2 - an important goal in a tricky phase.

In the first majority game of the game, Martin Mazanec made it 5-2 before the second break.

The ECP was back on track.

You could think so.

There was still the last third.

And a Lindau team that can fight.

Dominik Ochmann shortened to 3: 5 (49th), Simon Klingler in the majority to 4: 5 (55th).

And the Peitinger fan hearts beat faster again.

Hechenrieder prevented the equalizer several times and had to do well because his front men were still getting penalties.

Manuel Bartsch had to go to the penalty bench for stopping 93 seconds before the end.

And left the Peitinger outnumbered.

When Lindau's goalie left the ice in favor of a sixth outfield player, Nardo Nagtzaam's hour struck.

Peitings Dutchman chased the puck across the ice to 6: 4 into the empty Lindauer Tor.

And even added another hit.

So it was 7: 4: a clear result for a game that was pretty close in the meantime.
