Sparta started better, leading 1-0 after the first period. However, Třinec turned the score around in the second period also thanks to the fact that Růžička read the game well. “I jumped from the substitute, Hreho (Patrik Hrehorčák) attacked well. Matěj probably didn’t know about me at all and threw it blindly. When I went there, I hoped he could try it and it came, so I took it,” he described the goal Růžička in an interview with journalists.

The steelmakers bounced twice in the third period to a difference of two goals to 3: 1 and 4: 2. However, the leader of the table quickly erased the deficit and equalized at 4: 4 with a little-seen goal.

“Before the bulls we thought what signal we would play. But the space opened for me a bit, I pushed and it went into the goal. A pure coincidence,” Jurčina said to his goal from the 51st minute. The puck flew through the air all the time and in the last phase rose on the Kacetla trap. The puck had previously flown past Matthew Sukel. “I asked, but I was told it went over the hockey stick. I don’t think it was dotted. But I’m not sure,” he added.

Kacetla did not score a cheap goal, in the further course he did not collect any more and none of the four Spartan players overcame him in the raids. “You probably don’t see much of the goals he got, but they fall. It will happen. It was up to us to keep going and knock. Ondra otherwise caught well and I’m glad he helped us in the raids. It’s a pity we didn’t keep the lead. , but we are also happy for two points, “said Růžička.

It was the Třinec gunner who succeeded in the fourth series with a backhand bluff and scored the winning goal. “I was wondering what to do. I also said on the switch that maybe I would try a shot so that the goalkeeper wouldn’t expect it. As I slowed down, I saw Machy going down the concrete, so I tried it in a backhand,” he added.

Třinec won the raids for the first time in the season and approached the leader by three points

With increasing time, pushing also occurred more and more often. Tomáš Marcinko and Jan Buchtel got involved in the score 4: 4. David Musil, on the other hand, did not like the exclusion for the intervention on Michal Řepík, who gestured that he had been hit with an elbow in the face and was still exchanging views from the lungs with coach Václav Varaďa from Třinec.

“Two excellent teams clashed, neither of them wanted to lose. That includes emotions,” Růžička explained. “It was played for the first place, such matches have a special charge. It follows from the fact that the situation is balanced 4: 4 and no one gives anything for free, especially in such matches as today. The match was reminiscent of the playoffs, the pace was very But we are already playing the second half of the basic part, we have to get used to such matches slowly, “added Jurčina.
