Bolzano fights, but has to admit defeat to the Red Bulls 1:3

MacGregor Sharp and Marco Insam were missing from the home team, Günther Hell made way for Jaroslav Hübl in goal. The guests started like the fire department and pushed the White-Reds into their own defense from the start. Brian Fahey missed the first good chance, Kim Stromberg tried on the other side, but was denied by Luka Gracnar. Then Oberdörfer had to come off the ice after a board check. Salzburg took the lead in the 7th minute: Hübl couldn't hold on to Lynch's long-range shot and Konstantin Komarek made it 1-0. Three minutes later Red Bull increased the lead to 2-0. Markus Gander and Garrett Roe were in the penalty box when Matthew Keith outplayed the Bolzano defense and beat Hübl for the second time. Salzburg seemed to have the game in hand, but Bozen fought their way back into the match with commitment and heart. Four minutes before the first period break, Roe lost the puck on the blue line to Trenton Whitfield, who counterattacked and reduced the score to 1:2. It stayed that way even after twenty minutes.

In the middle third, the Bolzano team had to make do without defender Hannes Oberdörfer (concussion). Gander immediately missed a good opportunity, then the White-Reds were unable to take advantage of a double majority (Welser and Boivin were in the penalty box together for 76 seconds). In the 27th minute, Beaudoin had the score 2-2, but shot over the goal from two meters. The HCB put everything on one card in this phase, besieged the Gracnar goal, but could not beat the Salzburg goalkeeper. Stromberg only hit the post on the counterattack and Pance missed the opponent's goal by millimeters. The score didn't change even after forty minutes.

Salzburg controlled the game in the final third, the Foxes showed fighting spirit but only had a few opportunities to score. Two daons were awarded to Anton Bernard and Beaudoin. The guests, on the other hand, waited for their chance and took advantage of it in the 54.09 minute to make it 3: through Meckler. Charlebois and Pichè didn't pay attention, Meckler started the counterattack and scored safely. Four minutes before the end of the game, Motzko had to go to the penalty box and Pokel took his goalkeeper off the ice for a sixth skater. But it was still a deserved victory for Salzburg, the home team received applause from the audience despite the defeat.
