EBEL: Villach remains in Bolzano hands

Roland Hofer returned to the Foxes team on Friday evening. As a surplus foreigner, Zanoski had to go to the stands. Cortese once again acted as backup goalie because Hell is still suffering from a muscle injury. Meanwhile, Villach had to do without former Bolzano player Mark Santorelli, who suffered a annoying foot injury.

The match got off to a perfect start for Bozen, with Schofield making it 52-1 after just 0 seconds. A little later McMonagle tried it from the blue line, while Pewal had the equalizer on the other side. After 11.15:80 minutes, Hübl still had to admit defeat when Ringrose used a rebound. And it only took XNUMX seconds for the Carinthians to take the lead for the first time. When Hofer was sitting in the penalty box, Unterluggauer took the shot and Pewal deflected the puck unstoppable. McMonagle and Keller then missed two high-caliber shots to restore the stalemate. The Talferstädter literally laid siege to the home team's third, but the Foxes didn't want to score a goal.

The guests remained in control in the second half of the game, but Villach was also repeatedly dangerous in the town hall. Bozen goalie Hübl showed his class when there were opportunities for Ringrose and Platzer. A little later, Lamoureux stood out with opportunities for Cullen (27th) and Insam (29th). Five minutes later, Gander and Hofer were denied by the strong Villach goalkeeper, who then had to admit defeat eleven seconds before the end when Schofield equalized after a nice assist from De Simone.

In the final third, Lee tried immediately, but Lamoureux was in the post. The hosts also had their chances and Unterluggauer took advantage of one of these opportunities to put Villach in the lead. After 46.41 he tried a long-range shot that surprised Hübl. The Carinthians' joy only lasted a minute. Then Galvins equalized. But things were to get even better for Bozen, because in the 53rd minute Insam gave the White-Reds the lead for the second time that evening. De Simone did the preparatory work for the Bolzano attacker's goal. With the 5:3 into the empty Villach goal, Galvins made everything clear in the final phase.

The HCB Südtirol has shown a strong sign of life - and appears to be prepared for the match on Sunday in the home ice wave against the Austrian record champions Klagenfurt.
