0:3 deficit after four minutes and no access: The Tölzer Löwen lose 2:6 at the previous table twelfth EV Lindau.
Lindau/Bad Tölz – What a slump in performance: After a remarkable performance by the Tölzer Löwen in the derby against Rosenheim on Friday, they were completely lost on Boxing Day in Lindau.
Thanks to collective dropouts, it was already 3:0 for the new table eleventh in the Oberliga after less than four minutes.
The guests caught themselves to some extent after a break and goalkeeper change.
However, without their injured top scorer Ludwig Nirschl, they couldn't make up for the difficulties of the early phase and lost 2:6.
"A deserved win for Lindau," said Löwen coach Ryan Foster.
"We weren't there at the beginning, too slow, just watched, just stood, and we were punished for that."
Lions heartless and toothless
Being substituted after three shots on goal is almost the maximum penalty for a goalkeeper.
Philip Lehr, who had raised hopes against Rosenheim with some strong saves, was unable to prevent the goals conceded.
When Arturs Sevcenko made it 1-0 - completely left to his own devices by Vincenz Mayer's clever pass - he was still relatively powerless.
The Lindauer lupft him the disk after twelve seconds over the schooner.
Mayer made it 2-0, and when Ace Cowan shot to make it 3-0, Lehr barely reacted.
After a break it goes up for a short time
Ryan Foster called the time-out and brought in Josef Hölzl, who had been out for two games recently.
The lions caught themselves first.
Played more concentrated, brought the disc closer to the goal.
And Nick Huard actually reduced the third margin to 1: 3.
But instead of the important hit to 2:3, the lions conceded the 1:4 with the break siren.
Dillon Eichstadt collected two penalties, Daniel Stiefenhofer finished successfully with Tölzer outnumbered.
After the change, Vincenz Mayer increased to 5:1.
In the first leg caught up 0:4 deficit
The lions have already managed to catch up from a seemingly hopeless deficit against Lindau: they won the first leg after 4-0 and 5-4 after extra time.
But not this time.
Too little worked forward, the lions always found their master in their pressure phases in the young Lindau goalie Dieter Geidl, who was always on the spot except for a dropout at 2:5.
Then he played the disc Justi Späth on the trowel behind the goal and did not come back between the posts in time to parry it.
Symptomatic for used tag
In the last third - Foster: "Definitely our best - the lions had to deliver to.
It was just a matter of trying.
Somehow fitting for this day that Nick Huard, who was stopped during his solo, got stuck on Geidl when the penalty was due.
And that in the final phase, when Josef Hölzl was able to clear the goal for another field player after a long wait, the Tölzers almost put the disc in the goal themselves.
Alexander Dosch did that a little later to make it 6-2 for Lindau.
