National League: Zurich must react to the public

Act III of the play-off final will be played this Saturday. On their ice, the Zurich Lions will try to regain control after their 4-2 loss on Thursday in Lausanne.

After nine straight wins, Zürich conceded its first goal from behind in these finals series. Will he be able to bounce back against an opponent who will believe that the scenario of the semi-final against Fribourg-Gottéron will happen again? The Vaudois lost the first game of the series before getting four wins in the following four games…

In any case, the pressure is on in the Zurich camp. And especially on the shoulders of goalkeeper Simon Hrubec, impressive in his first nine outings in these playoffs, but not in his favor on Thursday’s decisive goal, 3-2, scored by Damien Riat after a long pass from Robin Kovacs. Conversely, Connor Hughes proved once again that he could hold the house.
