The slight improvement in the second game of the quarter-finals (score: 0:2) can be seen as a ray of hope in Lugano – or simply attributed to home advantage. Ultimately, Friborg was also a class better there. What else can Ticino residents do? If you want to throw your opponent off course, you have to surprise him – but how?
Goalkeeper change
Finn Mikko Koskinen has lost his mojo. Even if he doesn’t make any serious mistakes, he doesn’t seem like a rock right now. But Lugano is now dependent on a goalkeeper to lead his team as a substitute. Of course you can still shoot a series when your back is against the wall. But why wait when you can take action now? Niklas Schlegel is ready, then you also have to use the Schlegel.
Spontaneous prayers? Or intervene?
The super line with Calvin Thürkauf, Daniel Carr and the currently disoriented Michael Joly is kept short by the opponent. The quality of the trio and the theory of probability should get them back on track quickly; trust is probably better than activism here. Coach Luca Gianinazzi needs to use the leverage elsewhere: bring in Joey LaLeggia as the puck manager to get the offense going. The transition game is currently causing Lugano the most problems, because the attackers usually have to move the pucks from the back to the front themselves.
discipline
Playoff mentality? You have to use the momentum; using a crowbar usually doesn’t work. It’s not just about revenge mistakes – although there were plenty of them in both matches. Demanding discipline is the responsibility of the coaching team, but this also requires a degree of self-control within the team. This also applies to behavior towards the referees. Whining, whining, complaining, everything takes energy. Assistant coach Krister Cantoni spoke wise words during a break on Monday: “We have to concentrate on our game, not on the performance of the referees.”
