Timmendorfer coach proud of his team despite the derby defeat
Disappointed and exhausted, the players of the CE Timmendorf left the ice after the 2: 5 in front of 357 fans in the village derby of the ice hockey regional league against the Adendorfer EC. But then there was only praise from coach Michael Pohl for the Beach Devils from the Baltic Sea.
Timmendorfer Trainer impressed by his Beach Devils
“The team has once again shown its great character. How the guys bite into the game after falling 3-0 down was extremely impressive, ”said the CET coach. “At the beginning they were perhaps a little over-motivated and cramped after the fast deficit. And then it doesn’t take much against a team as clever and experienced as Adendorf. They take advantage of every weakness ice cold. “
Nevertheless, the Ostholsteiners never gave up, after goals from Christopher Röhrl (35th minute) and Marco Meyer (52nd) were about to turn the game. “But then we caught a completely unnecessary penalty time – and were promptly punished 2: 4. In the end we took the goalkeeper off the ice, but the puck just didn’t want to go in, ”said Pohl.
CET Sunday at the front runner of the ice hockey regional league as a guest
On Sunday (7 p.m.) Timmendorf has to play in the last game of the year against the leaders Harzer Falken in Braunlage. “That is of course a very big chunk. But these are also the games in which you can learn a lot. And unlike in the derby against Adendorf, we have no pressure at all in Braunlage, “explains Pohl – and adds:” We just have to work very hard on the defensive for 60 minutes, play smart, and sometimes wait for a counterattack. Then maybe we can surprise such a top team. “
