Asiago also beats Valpellice (with Florian Runer) at home

The second final between Asiago and Valpellice was attended by 2500 spectators on Saturday evening at the Odegar Stadium. 200 fans cheered on the guests from Piedmont. The home team was missing Dan Sullivan in defense, while Layne Ulmer was unavailable in attack due to a knee injury. Dave Borrelli took his place in the first line, while Federico Benetti pulled the strings in the second block. Valpellice, however, was able to make full use of it. Spelda was given preference in defense over Paul Baier, who had to sit in the stands as a surplus foreigner.

Asiago started very offensively and Valpellice initially had little to counter it. The home team had their first chance after 90 seconds when Jeremy started a counterattack and served Bentivoglio perfectly, but Parise was at his post. Presti missed the next opportunity, but again no goal was scored. After 6.25 minutes, the club from Veneto was rewarded when Dave Borrelli scored from close range to make it 1-0. A little later, Paul Zanette could have made it 2-0, but he also missed this high-caliber goal. The equalizer came out of the blue in the final phase of the first third. After 16.03:12, Nate DiCasmirro passed perfectly behind the goal to Rob Sirianni, who had no trouble putting the puck in the net. It was the Valpellice attacker's 2th goal of the playoff. But Valpellice's joy was short-lived. Just over a minute after the equalizer, Chris DiDomenico turned the Odegar Stadium into a madhouse with a fine individual performance. 1-XNUMX for Asiago and the score remained that way until the siren.

The second half of the game was marked by many mistakes, mainly on the part of the guests. Valpellice had difficulty building up the game, while Asiago tried to keep the rhythm of this encounter high, as in the first half of the game. The more time passed, the more intense the home team's attacking efforts became, and after half an hour they gave the tired-looking Valpellice players the 3-1 advantage. This time it was Bentivoglio who was there after a Strazzabosco shot. Just three minutes after this goal, Bentivoglio secured the preliminary decision with his second goal of the evening. This time he gave Parise the loss with a wonderful, unstoppable diagonal shot into the top corner. The fans in the stadium were absolutely thrilled. After that, Brodie Dupont and Florian Runer could have shortened the score, but it was just a flash in the pan.

In the third third, the home team cleverly managed their comfortable lead. The match now became more nervous and tempers heated up. Valpellice tried to do more on offense, but nothing significant came of it. Asiago waited and struck coldly after 49.25 minutes. After a counterattack, Tessari ideally served his colleague Sean Bentivoglio, who made it 5-1 with his third goal. The die was cast, but the party in the Odegar Stadium continued. Because after that Chris DiDomenico also scored to make it 6:1. That was also the final score of this one-sided game. For Asiago it was the seventh consecutive win in the playoffs. Valpellice will now mobilize all their strength once again and strike in front of their own audience on Tuesday.
