A sleepy start – it’s happening to the Lakers again. In no time, they are several goals behind. On Friday in Kloten they conceded three goals within five minutes, against Zug they conceded two in 89 seconds. It’s annoying that you find yourself in this situation just because your focus isn’t sharp at the beginning. The defenders Henauer and Jelovac – he still has to clear the safety net of toilet paper before the delayed start of the match – are not up to speed when EVZ defender Bengtsson runs through. The origin of the second goal was a failed build-up by Honka.
It is the fourth game in five days for Zug. The fact that they are running on the rims because of their mammoth program is not noticeable. Not yet. They played their way to the lead efficiently, scoring two goals from four shots on goal. After that, the Lakers do more for a tough duel. They bring more momentum to their offense – their shortcoming: the control of the disc. They handle the puck carelessly, long passes rarely find their target, and the disc constantly bounces. The SCRJ manages to score the next goal because Fritz can also play baseball. Rask hammers the box in the power play, the disc hits the goal from Genoni’s pad and Fritz sinks it in from the air.
The shooting ratio of 35:17 from the Lakers’ perspective reflects the Zugers’ increasing passivity, which is probably due to the lack of energy. So Rappi senses an opportunity for a turnaround. When Rask equalizes, the puck slides over Genoni’s pad. For the winning goal, Moy was spot on with Genoni’s rebound. This ends a long goal drought: Moy hadn’t scored in 17 games before that.
