Scorpions win Hanover derby after overtime

Reading time: approx. 4 minutes

Maybe the Hannover Scorpions had won the game in their minds before the game. There is no other explanation for the fact that you missed a disgrace in the derby of the Oberliga Nord. At the end of the day, the Hanover Indians could use one point very well and were already getting closer to the Leipzigers to within 0.02 points.

Joy with the play-free hamburgers. Due to the defeat in Halle, Erfurt slipped to sixth place, as Herne was not naked in Leipzig. Now this trio is only separated by 0.02 points. The Rostockers got what felt like six points this Sunday, because the direct competitor for tenth place, the U23 representation of the Krefeld EV, was clearly distanced. Herford, who was again free of play thanks to Corona, is now in eleventh place, 0.05 points behind Rostock and 0.02 points ahead of Krefeld. Right at the back, the Hammer Eisbären impressed, showing their morale despite the clear deficit in the table and securing three points in Diez-Limburg.

Icefighters Leipzig – Herner EV 1: 4 (0: 1, 0: 0, 1: 3)

In a balanced game, the Hernians finally showed themselves again in agile, cool form. The win is okay, but it would have been okay if the points had stayed in Leipzig. The only goal scorer up to the 40th minute was Nils Liesegang (10th), who was recently in good shape. When Maximilian Spöttel used the first attack in the last third to equalize, it seemed as if the time for the Icefighters had now come. However, this would only be, because three minutes later the Hernians made a double strike and came through Marcus Marsall (43rd) and Patrick Asselin (44th) within 60 seconds to a 3-1 lead. The now called for Leipzig found no answer to this deficit and even had to accept the 1: 4 from their point of view in the 52nd minute through Patrick Asselin.

Hannover Indians – Hannover Scorpions 4:5 (1:2, 2:0, 1:2, 0:1) n.V.

In fact, the game seemed decided before the first siren. A total of twelve outfield players from the Indians met a bench with 18 outfield players from the leader of the table, who then quickly set the tone in the first third. Brett Bulmer brought the Indians (7th) into the lead, but only one minute later Jan Pietsch (8th) equalized and when Andre Reiss even scored the 2-1 sixty seconds later, the way seemed clear for them Region Hanoverian. The whole thing was underpinned because the Scorpions played power play for several minutes with equal personnel and the Indians could only get air with icings. In the second period, however, the hosts’ defense held, who sat up against the strong David Zabolotny in their own goal and shortly before the end of the period came up with a surprising one-two punch. Within forty seconds, Brett Bulmer (38th) and Nico Turnwald (39th) changed the result from 1: 2 to 3: 2. Anyone who could assume a slump in the game of the Indians in the third third was positively surprised and in the 46th minute even a victory for the hosts seemed possible when Igor Bacek used a pass from the outstanding Bulmer to make it 4-2. Luck after that for the league leaders, who in return made it back through Tomi Wilenius. However, the Scorpions had to wait until the 58th minute to equalize. When Aichinger was in the penalty box, ex-Indian Robert Peleikis made it 4: 4. With Andre Reiss it was another ex-Indian who was able to bring the additional point to Mellendorf with a 5: 4 in the 64th minute. It should also be mentioned that in the actually fair derby in the 19th minute Thomas Pape (Indians) and Julian Airich (Scorpions) had an argument and Airich negotiated a game penalty.

Saale Bulls Halle – Black Dragons Erfurt 5:2 (1:0, 3:1, 1:1)

Will the people of Erfurt run out of strength at the end of the very long season? There is no other way to explain the defeat in Halle, which was certainly avoidable, even though the opponent was third in the table. In the first third, which was evenly balanced, Dennis Gulda (19th) gave the Bulls the lead. Kevin Beach (27th) equalized, then the Halle team tightened the reins in efficiency and scored through Lukas Valasek (32nd, 40th) and Kyle Helms (39th) to make it 4-1. The game was practically decided, even if the Erfurt threw everything forward in the last third, were susceptible to counterattacks and promptly conceded the 1: 5 in the 47th minute by the again strong performance of Kyle Helms. After all, Kevin Beach (49th) managed to make it 2: 5 from Erfurt’s point of view with double the majority.

EG Diez-Limburg – Hammer Eisbären 3: 5 (1: 1, 0: 2, 2: 2)

At the end of the day a somewhat happy but deserved victory for the bottom of the table, who finally got a reward after a few strong games. Annoying, however, the defeat for a Diezer player, namely for goalkeeper Louis Busch. The 22-year-old, who was supposed to play for number one in goal, but most recently acted as a back-up for Jan Guryca, was allowed to go in again and in the end had a catch quota despite conceding five goals, including an empty-netter of 89.2 percent. The best player at the EGDL was Niklas Hildebrand (2nd, 54th), who was involved in all goals. The third host goal was scored by Thomas Matheson (45th). For the tactically clever hammer, Kevin Orendorz and Andreas Valdix (60th) were the best collectors, each with three scorer points. The other Eisbären goals marked defender Tim Pietzko (7th), who scored again after almost exactly two months, Gianluca Balla (34th, 37th), Samuel Dotter (50th), who even three months on a personal goal Had to wait and just by empty-nice Andreas Valdix.

Rostock Piranhas – Krefelder EV U23 4: 0 (1: 0, 1: 0, 2: 0)

An extremely important success for the Rostock team in the battle for tenth place, because at least a direct competitor was defeated, and even without conceding a goal. And with that, the hero of the day is already mentioned. Piranha keeper Leon Fern fended off 32 shots and thus earned his shut-out. The second hero of the day was Tom Pauker from Rostock (10th, 34th, 48th), who managed a smooth hat trick. Constantin Koopmann (57th) contributed gate number four, so this time the gate production was entirely German. The only scorer point of the contingent player division contributed Dunbar to the 4-0. The best player in Krefeld was even goalkeeper Nils Kapteinat who, despite conceding four goals, still managed to catch 87.9 percent.
