Coach Alexander Sulzer’s team clearly won the away game in Bavaria 6:2 (2:0, 3:0, 1:2). The Penguins opened the scoring after just 21 seconds.
The start on Wednesday evening was appropriately marked by captain Jan Urbas. And things got even better for Bremerhaven early on: after just nine minutes, Markus Vikingstad increased the lead to 2-0 against the Panthers.
Intoxication with a double pack successful
In the middle third it only took two turns of the pointer before the Penguins celebrated again. Maxim Rausch scored the third goal of what was still a young evening at the time. A little later, Ziga Jeglic extended the Penguins’ clear lead (29th minute), before Rausch scored a brace before the end of the second period (35th).
In the final third, however, the first goal was reserved for the home team. Florian Elias reduced the score to 1:5 (45th): Shortly afterwards, Penguins defender Matt Abt restored the old distance (50th), but in the final phase Alexander Oblinger scored the next goal for the hosts (55th). . In the end it was a confident 6:2 win for the Fischtown Pinguins.
