HC Košice
2:4 (0:1, 1:3, 1:0)
Red Bull Munich
Thursday 20.08.2015, 18:30 • Steel Arena • Champions League • Group 8
     
    Peter Oremus (head coach of Kosice): "First 8 minutes was tied, then guests took the initiative and scored after our big faults. It´s international hockey, every fault is punished. We need to play for 100 % in every one shift, what didn´t happen. I am little bit sad, that not many players joined to one line, which was playing really good. Munich deserved the win."

    Donald Jackson (head coach of Munich): “The main difference was in our early four goals. We played well in first two periods, had many shots and chances. Third period was little bit different, Kosice took us under pressure and made in exciting until the very end. However, we defend their power-plays and lead the game to the winning end, what makes us happy.” (21:13:17)
     
    We are going to offer you also broadcast from press conference after the match! So let´s stay with us.
     
    It´s over, Red Bull Munich wins 4:2! German team was better in whole game and deserved to win. Home team played also great game, scored two nice goals and was closed to drama in the end of the match. They didn´t make points, but applause from Arena yes!

    59:47
    Power-play for Kosice! Mads Christensen gets minor penalty for high-sticking!
     
    59:46
    Wow, great save by Riecicky! Mauer was skating alone against him and tried it by wristshot, home goalie saved by right pad!
     
    59:22
    Now the game in defense zone of Kosice, it´s probably decided, that´s too difficult to score 2 goals for home team.
     
    58:44
    Kosice won the face-off and Slovak tried the fast shot from letf circle, Aus den Birken saved, and Jencik´s pass wasn´t accurate.
     
    58:21
    Now the face-off in offense zone of home team, Riecicky is staying in his net!
     
    58:02
    Kosice in control of puck, just in corners and in neutral zone, that are not places to score goals.
     
    57:45
    Now the game moved into the defense zone of Kosice. Will Kosice win the face-off and pull down Riecicky to play-power? Let´s see!
     
    57:16
    Big fights for puck in offense zone of Kosice, finally Munich´s players succeeded and come out with it outside of their defense zone.
     
    56:34
    Kosice sent three attempts from the blue line, all of them were blocked or inaccurate. Munich now in full strenght!
     
    55:45
    Inaccurant pass and Kosice are outside of attacking zone, needs to start again. Still one minute of power-play left!
     
    55:08
    What a chance for Bartanus! He sent a great slapshot from right circle and Aus den Birken with a great save! Kosice still in offense zone!
     
    54:50
    So, important moment of the game! Power-play for Kosice in the end of third period! Jeremy Dahner gets minor penalty for tripping!
     
    54:34
    There´s going to be a power-play for home team! Now they´re playing in 6, until someone of Munich won´t touch the puck.
     
    53:51
    The situation is clear – home team needs to attack and scored the third goal as early as possible, Munich needs to defend the lead. Now puck in neutral zone.
