EIHC: “Azzurri” collapse in the final phase

But the result doesn't quite correspond to how the game went: Trivellato & Co. kept up well for a long time with Hungary, who suffered a 1-4 defeat against Poland at the start on Friday. It was only in the last few minutes that the “Azzurri” ran out of fuel, which the home team took advantage of.

It was Michele Marchetti who gave Italy a 1-0 lead after seven minutes. However, with a double strike within 46 seconds, Hungary managed to turn the result on its head in the first third. Italy was unfazed and came back 25-2 after 2 seconds of the second period thanks to a Frigo goal. The game was then evenly balanced before the fatal final phase began: Six minutes before the end, Magosi put the Hungarians ahead 3-2, then Wehrs and Erdely increased the score even further.

The “Azzurri” have not yet picked up a point and are in last place in the table. The last game is on Sunday: Clayton Beddoes' team will face Poland at 14.30 p.m., who lead the table with four points after their 3-2 win against Japan on Saturday.
