    This is it from us in SAP Arena, we hope you had a #GreatDayAtCHL! (20:15:55)
     
    Game over! After unluckily losing to Lugano, the Eagles put on quite a show tonight, beating the Finnish champions Tappara Tampere 4:1 in front of almost 7000 spectators. The guests got on board midway through the third but Ullmann answered right away.
     
    Game over.
     
    59:27
    Garrett Festerling battles his way into the offensive zone thanks to some highlight-reel stick handling, but his shot is deflected wide.
     
    58:56
    Teemu Lassila is forced to make another save, it's not easy for the Tampere goalie even in the last minute of the game.
     
    57:58
    With not much time remaining, the home team is putting on a show and the whole arena is standing on its feet.
     
    56:19
    Marcel Goc's shot is deflected into the netting, there will be a face-off in front of Teemu Lassila.
     
    55:38
    Savinainen probably won this fight by sending the Adler defender on the ice. Both Richmond (MAN) and Savinainen (TAP) receive five-minute majors plus game misconducts for roughing.
     
    55:38
    We have yet another fight in this entertaining game, this time Daniel Richmond and Veli-Matti Savinainen drop the gloves!
     
    54:55
    After a hand pass by one of the home players, a face-off in the neutral zone will follow.
     
    54:41
    The Eagles deflect the puck into the offensive zone as the clock is slowly starting to wind down here in the third.
     
    53:40
    Plachta sends an opponent flying into the Tappara goalie but Lassila recovers immediately, so the play can continue.
     
    53:17
    Play is blown dead and another power break will follow.
     
    52:58
    Mathieu Carle joins the rush and tries to tap the puck home from a very sharp angle, but Lassila is there in time.
     
    52:33
    The smooth-skating Finns are finally able to put some pressure on their opponents but that doesn't lead to anything that would trouble Endras.
     
    51:41
    Goal for Mannheim!
    A bit of luck for the home team here and Adler finds an immediate answer! This goal had to be approved by the video referee because CHRISTOPH ULLMANN directed the puck behind Lassila with his body. Assisted by: Ryan MacMurchy, Nikolai Goc.
     
    50:58
    Goal for Tappara!
    Tappara gets on the board midway through the third period! After the draw, is able to find JANI LAJUNEN free in the left circle and the Finnish national team player makes no mistake. Assisted by Jukka Peltola, Otso Rantakari.
