Our team had three matches remaining in the EUHL regular season, which we played over the course of a single weekend in Karcfalva, Székely Land, as part of the Vicket Sekler Cup. Following the November UNIVERSITY OF GYŐR HOCKEY CUP II in November:
- SAPIENTIA U23 – Karcfalva, Romania
- UHT SABERS – Auschwitz, Poland
- UNIVERSITY SPARTACUS – Košice, Slovakia
- UNI GYŐR ETO HC – Győr, Hungary
On Friday evening, we kicked off the tournament against the home side, Sapientia U23, and we knew we were in for a really tough battle. The Székely side came out for the first period with the momentum of the favourites, but we managed to repel their attacks and create chances of our own. However, no goals were scored in this period. The second period began with a goal from the home side, unfortunately, to which we were unable to respond; and in the minutes leading up to the break, the home side scored twice more, though Bendegúz Jábor’s last-second goal gave us hope for the final period. This hope was once again dashed by a quick goal from Sapi in the third period, and then, just one minute before the final whistle, the home side’s tally had risen to five. Mátyás Odnoga managed to score another goal half a minute before the final whistle, but it was only enough to make the scoreline look a little better. **
Sapientia U23 v UNI GYŐR ETO HC: 5–2** Detailed match statistics HERE are available.
