Ice hockey playoff semi-final: Genève Servette defeats EV Zug

The scene of the game

In the 52nd minute, Josh Jooris made it 3:2, it was the goal that made the final perfect. Jooris played a wonderful one-two with Linus Omark and sunk the disc with ease.

The key figure

Henrik Tömmernes unluckily steered the puck into his own goal to make it 1:2. However, the Swede corrected his mistake by recording an assist on two goals in Geneva, his assists 5 and 6 in these playoffs.

The better team

Servette made a confident impression at the beginning and rightly took the lead. The qualifying winner later showed his class once more despite the deficit and still clinched victory.

The twittering of the stands

Zug had previously taken a 1-0 lead four times in this series, this time it was Geneva who scored the first goal.

Here’s how to proceed

So now the final is coming up, which many would have expected following the regular season: The qualifying winner Servette meets the second EHC Biel. Once once more, the people of Geneva have more home rights than the Seelanders. Game 1 will be played on Friday.
