Too many mistakes, too little efficiency: The 2: 7-Watschn against Kaufbeuren is the fourth defeat of the Tölzer Löwen in a row.
Bad Tölz - What happened what you wanted to avoid: a certain downward vortex.
Lack of self-confidence, lack of sense of achievement, lack of luck in graduation, lack of concentration and the resulting mistakes.
After three defeats in a row, the fourth could not be prevented.
With 2: 7 the Tölzer Löwen were wiped off by ESV Kaufbeuren on Sunday evening.
Tölzer Löwen in a downward spiral: Fourth defeat in a row
Too many uncertainties, too little efficiency in the end, after just ten minutes Toelz was 3-0 down and never had access to the game.
After 1: 6 before the final third, Hendrik Huwer got his first season appearance in the Tölzer Tor after Maximilian Franzreb did not seem quite as insurmountable as the games before.
"When almost every mistake leads to a goal, it's very difficult," said coach Kevin Gaudet.
The Tölzer Löwen was not lacking in commitment and had a lot of chances to fight to the end, even being ahead in the shooting statistics with 36:32.
But there were also some mistakes, and the first two were punished by the strong Alexander Thiel and Fabian Koziol with the 2-0 lead after barely five minutes.
The Tölzer had another retirement with Manuel Edfelder (bar).
There were only eight strikers available, even though Tyler McNeely made his comeback after a long injury break.
"The opponents know about our small squad, adjust to it, deal with fore-checking," says Gaudet.
The result: Many of the BUam's passes did not arrive, faults in position and target losses.
Kaufbeuren was hungry for the pucks and goals, ”says Gaudet.
Again Thiel increased to 3-0 after a successful combination.
Oliver Otts connection goal shortly before the first break after a nice pass from Maximilian Leitner brought no real hope.
Because in the second third the same picture: Too many uncertainties among the hosts, Sami Blomqvist made it 4: 1, before Luca Tosto had Fabian Voit's disc removed from her own goal - 1: 5.
At the latest with the next hit by the ex-lion Joseph Lewis, who was also in a good mood, the air was out - and Franzrebs workday ended.
Too many missed opportunities
Huwer had one or two opportunities to excel before the Tölz substitute keeper in the first power play of the game - Leitner had to sit on the bench - had to reach behind him.
At least the last time.
Daniel Oppolzer's 7-2 was the last goal of the evening after Tosto had ironed out his faux pas with 2-6.
“Kaufbeuren was the better team,” says Gaudet.
“But the result is a bit too clear.” The Tölzer did nothing of their - quite existing - possibilities.
Reid Gardiner shot just wide of the post in the first third, Philipp Schlager also missed from the slot, later Max French failed from a similar position, Leitner's slap shot just missed the frame.
The lion coach had already noticed a certain exhaustion in his service providers in advance, which was confirmed.
