Eisbären Berlin under pressure: Third home defeat against Munich!

Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Deutschland - On the last match day, the Eisbären Berlin suffered a disappointing defeat against the EHC Red Bull Munich in the German Ice Hockey League (DEL). The home game in the sold -out stadium ended 1: 4 for the guests, with Leonhard Pföderl only scoring a goal for the Berliners. The Munich, who were characterized by a strong defensive, took the lead in the 13th minute by Patrick Hager. Despite the powerful phases, the polar bears were unable to overcome the defense against Munich and gave important opportunities. In the second third, the Munich leads their lead to 2-0 after Nikolaus Heigl exploited inattentiveness on the Berlin defensive. A disappointing evening for the polar bears who have already lost their third home game in a row.

The Berlin team is criticized for their lack of determination in the attack. Although they had good opportunities, they remained harmless at crucial moments. In the final third, the polar bears scored their first goal through Pföderl by power play, but the missed game was sealed by Maximilian Kastner for Munich, which made the final score. In a different context, in a previous meeting, the Munich residents managed to transform a 0: 3 deficit within a short time into a 4: 3 victory, which underlines their perseverance, as Ice hockey News reported.

The polar bears must now rethink their strategy, since they have not only lost to Munich, but also put morals to the test before future games. The defeat is not only annoying, it also has an impact on the team's self -confidence. They are faced with the challenge of scoring at the EHC in the next game on Sunday to avoid another setback in the course of the season.
