EC Bregenzerwald got off to the better start and deservedly took the lead in minute five: Lipsbergs and Lehtonen carried a quick attack forward, which Fabian Ranftl completed for 1:0. The home side remained the dominant team, but were also lucky shortly before the end of the period when the puck only rolled along the goal line during the visitors' attack. After the restart, Waltteri Lehtonen (23rd) took advantage of the home side's first power play to make it 2:0, but the visitors had the right answer, only one minute later Christian Jennes reduced the score. Roberts Lipsbergs didn't take long to restore the old gap on the next power play opportunity, 3:1 at minute 28. The last period was then an open exchange of blows. The Pinzgauers tried to avert the threat of defeat, but EC Bregenzerwald did everything in their power to counter it. Frederik Widen (56th) made the game exciting again with his goal for 3:2. The guests pulled their goalkeeper for another skater at the next opportunity, but were not rewarded for it: Rene Tröthan scored the hosts' fourth goal in the 59th minute with an empty netter. However, Maximilian Egger found the back of the net again just 39 seconds later. Even though the visitors took Zimmermann off the ice again and Bernhard Fechtig had to go to the penalty box, the score remained 4:3. The Bregenzerwald side thus overtook the EK Zeller Eisbären and is now in sixth place.
