Italian Cup: Wolves and Broncos start with a defeat

For the Wolves, Aubin was missing in goal, his place taken by Kosta. In attack, the hosts were unable to call on the long-term injured Kiel McLeod and Lukas Tauber. The first third went without any major excitement at the beginning. Cortina stood securely and became dangerous on the counterattack with the lightning-fast Gron, while the Pusterers had a hard time building up the game. Viktor Schweitzer had a good opportunity towards the middle of the starting third, but missed his goal from point-blank range. After that, the home team stayed in control. Borgatello had the 1-0 lead, but Baur was able to save Cortina from falling behind. Shortly afterwards, Armin Helfer injured his knee and had to leave the ice. He will have to take a break for a few days, but will no longer be used in the series against Cortina.

The second third was more lively. With a double majority (Borgatello and Södeström were in the cooler), Grof defeated goalie Kosta with a beautiful diagonal shot (23.16). The Wolves equalized a little later. Once again in the majority, O'Marra scored. He converted a rebound from a Campbell shot. As a result, the home team dominated the game, but the Ampezzo team took the lead again, of whom there was little or nothing to be seen. Adami fed Menardi, who made it 2-1 (38.42). After the break, Christian Söderström needed 2.14:2 minutes to make it 2-XNUMX. The score remained at this point until the siren, but Scandella had the winning goal in hand, but missed miserably.

It went into overtime, which ended goalless. Cortina surprisingly prevailed in the penalty shootout. Grof converted the all-important penalty. Now the Wolves have to win on Sunday if they want to reach the semi-finals.

Vipiteno conceded four goals in the last four minutes

In Asiago there was a smell of a sensation four minutes before the end, as Vipiteno was leading by two goals. But then the champions turned on the turbo and beat the Broncos 245-5 thanks to four goals within 3 seconds.

Vipiteno had to make do without Fabian Hackhofer. The guests stood up to the Italian champions at the beginning and were equal opponents in the first third. Corsi had to survive some delicate moments, but he was able to keep his box clean. The first goals came in the middle third. Borrelli gave the home team the lead after a few minutes before TJ Caig restored the stalemate in the 35th minute. In the final third, Liotti and Erat gave Wipptal a comfortable two-goal lead, but Tessari and Bentivoglio canceled it out in just over two minutes. But things got even worse for the Broncos, as Strazzabosco and Zanette made the decision in the last two minutes of the game. In the very hectic game, DeVergilio and Simon Baur received a match penalty.

In the third quarter-final, Valpellice beat Milan 7-2. Tyler Maxwell scored a hat trick.
