Ritten overwhelms Cortina and has one foot in the final

The “Buam” had to do without defender Fabian Ebner (intestinal problems), while the old master had to make do without the suspended Francesco Adami and the injured Ronny De Zanna. Nicola Fontanive was available again for this.

You didn't have to be a clairvoyant to predict offensive fireworks from the home team in the Ritten Arena. In the fifth minute, Patrick Rizzo was in the penalty box and the “Buam” struck ice cold in the power play - Oscar Ahlström scored with a cross corner goal to take the lead 1-0. And things got even better for the Rittners, because in the 11.10 minute Janis Sprukts increased the score to 2-0 with a wonderful solo. Just 91 seconds later, Ritten closed the sack. After Tudin hit the post, Tommaso Traversa reacted quickest and scored to make it 3-0. This situation remained the same after 20 minutes. Ritten showed an extremely strong performance and shot 22 times at Marco de Filippo Roia's goal.

Right at the start of the middle third, Cortina reduced the deficit to 1:3 with Riley Brace outnumbered, before Thomas Spinell restored the three-goal lead 75 seconds later. But Ritten still didn't have enough and shortly afterwards increased the score to 5-1 with Traversa's double goal scorer.

The final third began with another goal from the Italian champions. The choice Knight Dan Tudin made it 6:1 on the power play (Jordan Ciccarrello was in the penalty box). Shortly afterwards, Viktor Ahlström also entered the shooting list and defeated Marco de Filippo Roia with a final score of 7:1.
