After just five minutes, Dzerods Alksnis had his say with a power play goal, assisted by Alex Asmus, giving Schweinfurt a 1-0 lead. But Amberger didn't let themselves be discouraged and equalized after a foul and a quick counterattack.

Strong performance from newcomers

The second half of the game started well for the Schweinfurt team, who started the last two thirds with a majority for almost two minutes. Alex Asmus once again showed his class and increased the score to 2-1 in the 27th minute after being nicely set up by Josef Dana. Benny Roßberg in particular was a striking player and provided a noticeable momentum in the game with several strong scenes.

The Mighty Dogs continued to push forward in the final third, but were initially unable to improve until Kristers Donins launched the attack to make it 3-1 through Tomas Cermak. A remarkable performance by the team, which remains unbeaten in preparation - after three games they now have three wins.
