Course of the match
Both teams played a very controlled game in the early stages and chances were initially in short supply. Straubing's Nicolas Mattinen took the first high-caliber chance of the game to take the lead (7th). The visitors then had two more good opportunities, but Mathias Niederberger was the last man standing. The Red Bulls then worked on equalizing - and were rewarded in the 15th minute: Abeltshauser hammered a direct shot into the net to make it 1:1. Munich kept up the pressure, but the Tigers remained ice-cold in their finishing and took the lead again through Mark Zengerle (17'). The score remained 1:2 until the first break.
Söderholm's team stepped up the pace in the middle period and did not let a two-minute penalty slow them down. Ehliz scored while short-handed to make it 2:2 (24'). The Red Bulls kept up the pace, but Straubing remained dangerous. Zengerle converted one of the chances to make it 2:3 (29'). However, the champions struck back just nine seconds later with 3:3 through Heigl - after a remarkable assist from the eye-catching Veit Oswald. Munich were now in control and scored two more goals: First Ehliz made it 4:3 with his second goal of the evening (35'), before Smith deflected in a powerplay to make it 5:3 (36'). With his 100th DEL goal, the attacker put the finishing touches to a breathtaking second period. It took just 22 seconds in the final period for the visitors to reply through Michael Connolly. After the final goal, Straubing took more risks. The result was a wild exchange of blows with chances on both sides. Connolly had the equalizer on his stick, but Niederberger reacted brilliantly (47'). At the other end, Ortega increased the lead to 6:4 (50'). Munich consistently defended their two-goal lead and the visitors hardly had any chances to score. This did not change when Tigers coach Tom Pokel brought on an extra outfield player in the 57th minute. The Red Bulls went on to win 6:4.
