“It was disrespectful”

It was the turning point of the game. That is why EVZ coach Dan Tangnes got angry again after the 4-1 defeat in Rapperswil-Jona SG. What is going on? Not about the remaining exclusion of his defender Christian Djoos, who has weakened the champion defensively. It’s about the Lakers’ power play during his penalty.

Yannick-Lennart Albrecht scores the 2-1. The puck bounces off his foot into the goal just as defender Samuel Kreis chases him from behind. Coach Tangnes asks the umpires to check the goal. “It was a clear kicking movement,” emphasizes the Norwegian, who looked at the scene again after the game, but cannot accept the coach’s challenge.

Why is the 44-year-old losing his cool about the gang? “They refused to look at it,” Tangnes explains. He doesn’t understand that. “It was bad match management. It’s the referees’ job to control that. That was disappointing and disrespectful. They also want us to respect them.” Tangnes expects everyone to respond professionally in such situations. Ref Cedric Borga can still be convinced. After reviewing the video, the referee duo stands by their goal decision.

The Master Trainer is known for controlling his emotions and quickly regaining focus and composure. But his team doesn’t do this anymore. They did not recover from the third goal, “when the momentum switches sides, the influence in the playoffs is even greater”. Just as big as the loss of defense chief Djoos, especially since Niklas Hansson (for personal reasons) was also missing. Tangnes has nothing but positive words for his team’s performance in the first third.
