As part of the 4th day of the National League, our Lions lost on the Swiss Arena ice rink with a score of 3-1. The post-match is presented to you by our main partner, Vaudoise Assurances.
A lack of realism in the offensive zone
Enterprising from the start of the match, the Lausanne players arrived in Zurich with the right attention. Like the TopScorer Postfinance Theo Rochettethe Vaud team did not wait before taking its chance in the Zurich camp. Despite this good offensive attitude, the lack of realism will catch up with the men of Geoff Ward. Once placed behind the cage of the Zurich goalkeeper Ludovic Waeber, The Lions never managed to get the rhythm to find their defenders at the blue line.
After two goals conceded, despite another solid performance from Kevin Paschethe Swiss defender Andrea Glauser allowed his team to hope to get back into the game after a superb solo that brought Lausanne back to within one length. However, the Lions fell into the penalty trap and saw their opponent score a 3rd goal.
Efficient Zurichers
With only 17 shots on target in this match, the EHC Kloten players were a model of efficiency in the Lausanne camp. The strong men of the Zurich team managed to show themselves present at the right moment. Dominant since its arrival in the National League, Sami Niku had a perfect game in the restart and in the offensive zone. Miro Aaltonen is for his part the man of the match after having offered an offering to the new arrival Daniel Audette and scored the third goal for Zurich, which marked the end of the match at the Swiss Arena.
After four National League matches, the Vaudois have 6 points and are ranked 8th.
