2:1! Eisbären just one win away from the title

This is ice madness! In a gripping third final game, the polar bears fought a deserved 2-1 win against RB Munich in front of 14,200 fans in the MB Arena and took a 2-1 lead in the series.

On Wednesday (7:30 p.m., Magentasport) another win for Bayern and the polar bears are champions again. Come on, get the pot now!

Coach Serge Aubin is changing his ranks. With Mark Zengerle and Johan Södergran he brings fresh strength.

Too bad: After Yannick Veilleux, Blaine Byron is now also injured. For this, Zach Boychuk moves into the first line of attack. And the “payoff monster” strikes again. Outnumbered, he puts his polar bears ahead with his seventh playoff goal (5th). But then Munich used a carelessness in the bear defense by Zach Redmond to equalize (7th).

Mathias Niederberger keeps the polar bears in the game with great saves. Munich pushes, has chances. But these polar bears fight incredibly, never give up. What a team!

Even when Boychuk has to get off the ice injured (after a foul) (34th), they fight and brace themselves against the Munich team. Jackson keeps bringing his front row, but brings nothing! Dominik Bokk makes the arena tremble – 2:1! 93 seconds before the 2nd period break. It stays that way. VICTORY!
