“I liked our game in every way,” Caps coach Dave Cameron said. Two games scheduled for Sunday had previously been postponed indefinitely due to positive tests for coronavirus. Prior to the planned duel between the Dornbirn Bulldogs and EC Grand Immo VSV, positive CoV tests were given to both teams, according to the league. The match between Moser Medical Graz 99ers and Bratislava Capitals was postponed due to positive test results, but only for one team.
In Vienna, thanks to Sascha Bauer (1st) and captain Mario Fischer (18th), the hosts went ahead 2-0 after the first half and extended the lead to 3-0 at the beginning of the last third thanks to Colin Campbell (42nd) . The dice fell despite a goal from Peter Hochkofler (42nd) and a lot of pressure from the somewhat unfortunate “Bulls”, Nikolaus Hartl made it 4-1 with an empty goal just seconds before the end.
Salzburg’s second consecutive defeat
“Only our action in the majority of four minutes in the second third could have been better. My players were a bit careless and failed to build momentum, “said Cameron. His Salzburg counterpart, Matt McIlvane, saw at least an increase after the second suite loss compared to Friday’s 1: 4 against Innsbruck. “Unfortunately, we couldn’t take advantage of the breaks and the excess of games,” he said.
Tied on points with Salzburg (with one more match), KAC are fourth, on Sunday “Rotjacken” achieved their second home win with a 2-1 win over Innsbruck. The deciding factor was Dennis Sticha’s goal in the 48th minute. In Sunday’s third game, Fehervar prevailed 5: 4 at home against Bozen.
