Painful defeat for Capitals: Pioneers dominate 5: 1

The Spusu Vienna Capitals had to give up the Pioneers Vorarlberg clearly with 1: 5 last Friday in the first away game of the season. This defeat came at a crucial moment because the capital had to do without several key players due to injuries. Head coach Gerry Fleming said that his team had made life difficult for "unnecessary own mistakes".

From the beginning, the Pioneers checked the game. Ramon Schnetzer made two early goals in the tenth and 23rd minute that the home side quickly took the lead. Kevin Macierzynski added another goal shortly afterwards, which reinforced the existing momentum of the Pioneers. A Highlight for the Capitals came through Christof Kromp in the 28th minute, who set a glimmer of hope with his goal.

The first goal was already in the tenth minute of the game. After a well-played advance of the Pioneers, Ramon Schnetzer shot his first seasonor, which increased the momentum weighting in favor of the hosts. A short time later, Kevin Macierzynski converted a deflected shot and increased the lead for Vorarlberg. Despite the initial efforts of the Capitals, including a first power play in the sixth minute, the Viennese failed to take the lead.

to Kromps Tor, the Pioneers reacted quickly and Billy Gilmour restored the old distance in the 31st minute. The team of coach Dylan Stanley showed a closed and committed team performance, which was supported by a solid defensive. In a further advance, the Capitals attempted to deal with the goal, which were all either missed the goal or were rejected by the strong Pioneers goalkeeper Madlener.

The capitals tried to increase their performance and turn the game in the final third. They came dangerously in front of the Pioneers goal several times, but the persistent defense and the efficient interaction of the Vorarlbergers led the Viennese to score no more than one goal. Macierzynski set the final point in this one -sided encounter in the 54th minute.

Overall, the capital came to 22 goal shots, while the Pioneers were only less taxed. However, the high number of casual errors that the capital was made was significant, as Head coach Gerry Fleming noted. "It's about puck management," said the trainer. "If you just leave the puck to the other team, it's difficult." The next challenge for the Capitals is already on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. against HC Tiwag Innsbruck.

Although the capital was able to work out many opportunities in this game, they have to control their game better in the coming games and minimize the mistakes in order to be able to act more successfully. The team hopes to be able to compete with a complete line -up soon in order to be able to better manage the upcoming challenges.
