2-0 win in Linz! Reid and Insam make the Foxes cheer

The Foxes have now taken away the home advantage from the Black Wings and made it 2-1 in the best-of-seven series. The fourth quarter-final game is scheduled for Sunday at the Bolzano Eiswelle (17.30:XNUMX p.m.). With another win, the Foxes can earn their first match puck.

On Friday evening, both teams were slow to get up to speed in the No Worries Arena. It was only after 14 minutes that HCB had their first significant opportunity, but after a dream pass from Gellert, Root shot just over from close range. An excitement that Linz didn't like at all. The Upper Austrians responded with a 0 percent double chance from Broda and DaSilva, but it remained 0-XNUMX until the final siren.

Seymour only hits the goalpost Both teams carried the momentum of the last few minutes into the second half. The HCB initially narrowly missed the opening goal when Seymour only hit the bar. The Linz team then took command, firing one shot after the other at the Bozen goal (statistics 19:7), but failed either due to the outstanding Melichercik (great reflex against Loik, 26th) or due to their own inability. On the other side, Insam almost made it 1-0 on a counter-attack, but the target missed the goal.

Fatal slip-up In the final third, the many Bolzano fans who had traveled along took their breath away for a short time: after a commotion, the puck crossed the line of the white-red box, but since an ice skate was involved, the referee disallowed the goal. After that the game was on a knife edge, there were plenty of opportunities and goal area scenes on both sides. Then, three minutes before the end, a Linz defender slipped in the Bolzano third and lost the puck to Frigo, who passed it on to Reid - and alone in front of the opposing goalkeeper, the Canadian did not miss this opportunity. Linz rebelled afterwards, but Bozen didn't let anything go wrong. Insam put the lid on it via Empty Net. The first away win of 2017 and the 2-1 in the series was perfect.
