Ritten overtakes Bozen in the Serie A table

Bolzano's defeat against Fassa came as a surprise. In the direct duels this winter it is now a 2-2 draw. The record champions won both the first leg and the second leg of the first round of the championship with 5-3 goals. Fassa, on the other hand, won the two games in the second round of the championship, always with 2.1 goals. The first leg after extra time, today in regular time.

The Bolzano coach Adolf Insam was able to rely on Anton Bernard again today, but had to make do without Mika Lehtinen and Christian Walcher. The Ladins came to Bolzano without the suspended Diego Iori and the injured Gerome Giudice. After 180 seconds, the guests had their first opportunity with Bradley Smith. The Fassa striker missed another great chance in the 6th minute when he was unable to capitalize on a short save from Zaba. In the 17.30 minute we saw the HCB for the first time. However, Fassa goalkeeper Frank Doyle fended off Enrico Dorigatti's shot with a brilliant save. So after the first third it remained a goalless draw. In the 21.10 minute Marco Insam narrowly missed, three minutes later Caudron presented himself alone in front of Zaba, but shot at the goalkeeper's body. In the 32nd minute, Caudron failed in the counterattack alone in front of Zaba. Two minutes later, Bozen was unable to take advantage of a double advantage (Sullivan and Wilford were in the penalty box). Mazzolini missed the best chance and Jan Nemecek was just able to make the save. So after 40 minutes it was still 0-0. Bolzano's opening goal came in the 42.10 minute. Nick Mazzolini benefited from Doyle's uncertainty after a shot from Borgatello and scored to make it 1-0. A minute later, Fretter could have decided the game, but his shot hit the post. In the 48.10 minute, Derek Edwardson, who was played free by Caudron, equalized to make it 1-1. In the 53.10 minute, Caudron Zaba surprised with a hammer shot and gave Fassa the lead for the first time. The assist was awarded to Sullivan. In the 58.45 minute, Zaba made room for a sixth field player, and immediately afterwards Smith missed the Bolzano team's empty goal. In the final seconds, Edwardson and Wilford also had to leave the ice, but Fassa defended the narrow lead and won 2-1.

Ritten wins in Alleghe with two goals from Kevin Baker Ritten Sport took advantage of Bolzano's slip-up to overtake them in the table. Bruno Aegerter's team defeated Alleghe away with 2-1 goals. The home team took the lead with Mac Faulkner, but then Kevin Baker scored twice and gave Ritten its sixth championship win in a row.
