The match was practically decided after the first third. Swedish team player Marcus Sörensen put the efficient guests in the lead after just 69 seconds. Samuel Walser scored in the 13th minute to make it 2-0, and just 60 seconds later long-time NHL player Jacob de la Rose from Sweden increased the lead. While the KAC’s offensive efforts were unsuccessful, Walser was successful again for Fribourg in the middle third (32nd) and thus put the finishing touches on the game.
Meanwhile, an Austrian was successful in a parallel game. In Lausanne HC’s 7:2 win against Tampereen Ilves from Finland, Michael Raffl from Villach scored a goal and an assist for the Swiss. The second Austrian CHL team, Red Bull Salzburg, will play against Unia Oświęcim on Friday (5:30 p.m.) and will be looking to score their second win in three games.
