The guests presented themselves in Ostrava less than twenty-four hours after losing on the ice of the last Zlín, and soon after the start they had to face the chance of the home bitten, who, however, did not change the solo at Kváč.
–
Then there was a balanced match, in which the North Bohemians gained the lead in the power play. In the 15th minute, Šmíd’s shot from the goalkeeper Stezka bounced in front of Vlach, who promptly placed the puck into the goal from the volley.
–
The home team could not do much against the opponent playing without Gríger or Klepiš even in the second act. Bondra and Maros recombined one of the few goal situations in front of Kváč, and it was expensive, because Filippi pulled a bounced puck between the rings and his wrist must have sent it over Stezk’s concrete. His sixteenth goal of the season meant a two-goal lead and more peace for Liberec.
–
The North Bohemians increased their leadership in the third part. After they did not use the power play, their pressure in the offensive zone continued and Ivan scored him with a third goal.
–
The home team then dramatized the match for a few minutes. After a scrum on the goal area, Bitten reduced to 1: 3 and in the subsequent power play Liberec from the contact goal after Solovyov’s shot, the stick saved. However, Vítlovský’s hopes were extinguished by Rychlovský, who caught Koch’s pass and crossed the trail for the fourth time.
–
In the end, the home team could reduce in weakness, but Bondr’s biggest chance was caught by Kváč. Vítkovice lost the fourth of the last five matches.
