“That was one of the best games of the season,” analyzes Bozen attacker Angelo Miceli. This refers to his Foxes' 5-2 triumph over Villach in the first quarter-final. The Talferstädter played cat and mouse with the Carinthians in the Sparkasse Arena for two thirds and achieved an exhilarating victory.

But the next match is scheduled for Tuesday at 19.15:1 p.m., this time in Villach. The town hall there has been a difficult place for the Foxes so far this season, as there have been two defeats. Once it was 4:3, once it was 7:XNUMX.

Nevertheless, Bolzano tackles the four-hour journey with full confidence. “When you play away it’s always a little more difficult. But if we play like we did on Sunday, then I don't see any problem with it," said the clear words of Bozen's top striker Christian Thomas.
