The Tölzer Löwen postpone the decision against Kaufbeuren after a 5-2 lead in the final third.
Bad Tölz - The end result was already clear after 20 minutes.
The Tölzer Löwen led 5-2 on Tuesday evening against ESV Kaufbeuren.
After less than nine minutes, guest keeper Jan Dalgic made room for the young Dominic Guran.
Just to come back after the first break.
Because Guran wasn't feeling much better either.
With the Lions almost every shot was a hit - even if the goals conceded were also quite easy.
Clear thing - at the beginning and at the end
It was almost exciting, however, because the Tölz team suddenly couldn't get any more goals and the ESVK came up to at least 3: 5.
“Kaufbeuren had good chances in the second third,” said Löwen coach Kevin Gaudet.
“The game wasn't decided by our sixth goal.” But in the end the Lions didn't let anything get lost and won 7-3.
The Tölz team, who had been competing with three complete rows of storms for a long time, succeeded in a tailor-made start.
With a double strike within 33 seconds by Max French and Mario Lamoureux, who had returned from the injured state, the lions had plenty of tailwind.
Hardly slowed down by John Lammers' early goal in the power play after coach Rob Pallin had shaken his team up after four minutes in a break.
However, almost every disc still landed on the ESVK goal in the ESVK goal: After Philipp Schlenzer's not untenable flick to 3: 1 - Dalgic's view was blocked - there was the goalkeeper change.
But less than two minutes later Guran also had to reach behind him: Lubor Dibelka increased the Tölzer to 4: 1 in a patiently presented power play.
The ex-Tölzer Florin Ketterer Kaufbeuren brought it up again to 2: 4.
But again French put with his second goal and the second power player to 5: 2.
Nothing decided until the sixth goal
The only possible reproach to the Tölzer: The defense was again not always firm.
Maximilian Franzreb often had to intervene decisively in the second third.
He did.
"He kept us in the game again with strong saves," says Gaudet.
"But after five goals you have to manage to bring home the victory."
But as easily as the goals fell so far, the goal scoring in the second section was tough for the lions.
And shortly before the end, Lammers managed the 3: 5, which actually gave Kaufbeuren another boost.
Markus Eberhardt put an end to the hopes of the guests with his third goal of the season when he nicely chiped Reid Gardiner's pass past Dalgic.
The final decision was taken by Manuel Edfelder 7-3.
