Qualifier winners with their backs against the wall: Cadets miss one more win to defend their title

class=”sc-29f61514-0 kHgAwW”>

The Kadetten Schaffhausen need one more win to successfully defend their championship title. They also win the second game of the final series against Kriens-Luzern with 33:25.

Towards the end of the first half, the Cadets set the course for another victory in this best-of-5 series. In this phase they increase their lead on the break score of 16:11. The defending champion can again count on his top scorer before the break. Icelander Odinn Thor Rikhardsson scores eight times in the first 30 minutes, five of which with seven meters. It doesn’t matter if the left-hander doesn’t go the way he wants after the change of ends.

The Cadets also dominate in the second period. That evening they were simply too good for the qualifying winner and cup winner, who had to take his first home defeat of the current season with a 27:31 at the start of the final on Whit Monday.

Kriens-Luzern can never reduce the deficit to more than three goals. The cadets react to the brief moments with Central Swiss hope of a turning point and extend the lead to a landslide victory.

Sunday afternoon in Sursee, where Kriens-Luzern plays its home games, the cadets can perfect the 13th championship title in club history.(SDA/dti)
