After one Away win to start the series (Best of five) in Lombardy, there was a 7:3 triumph in front of a home crowd on Thursday.

More than 500 spectators did not miss the game in the Bruneck Intercable Arena and saw how HCP was already leading 4:0 after about half an hour.

HCP Junior, who had lost the final the previous year, continued to dominate. Chiavenna managed to improve the scoreline somewhat towards the end of the match.

Now the Puster Valley team has the chance to clinch the title in their own arena on Saturday (18 pm).
