Pack has to accept series equalization!
Everything was even again - our Wolves had to admit defeat to the Lions in the first home game of the play-offs, which means the series is now 1-1. Unfortunately, the decisive factor for this was an expandable throwing rate on the offensive...
Like two days before, our team stood up well to the guests on both sides of the court, but unfortunately they didn't adjust their sights well that evening. They remained within striking distance of the Lions for a long time, but unfortunately that didn't change the 33:41 deficit at the break.
Unfortunately, after the break, the Traiskirchen team found their rhythm quicker and pulled away decisively in the third quarter. In the end there was a 61:80 defeat, which led to the series equalizing 1:1.
On Thursday (6:00 p.m.) Game 3 will be about the first match point for one of the two teams.

Roman Jagsch: “They made life very difficult for us with their defense. We haven’t found a way to score and 61 points at home is not enough.”
Felix Angerbauer: “We fought hard for over 40 minutes and played good defense. Unfortunately our shots didn’t fall today and we are preparing for the game on Thursday.”
