Despite a good performance in the derby in Buchloe, HC Landsberg came away with a 3-1 defeat. On the other hand, the Riverkings picked up three points at home thanks to a strong final spurt in a 4:3 win against Schweinfurt.
The home side quickly took a 2:0 lead in the first period in Buchloe before Wagner scored for Landsbrg. After the first break, the Riverkings visibly increased the pressure, but failed to capitalise on good opportunities and hit the Buchloe post three times.
The home side then decided the game in a somewhat fortunate manner when Schorer hit the disc volley in the air in overtime to make it 3:1.
Two days later, luck was on Landsberg's side for once. Against a surprisingly strong last-placed team from Schweinfurt, they initially struggled considerably. Although they took the lead through Protcenko in the 6th minute, the visitors then stepped up and even took a 2:1 lead. The equaliser by HCL striker Grözinger was promptly replied to by Schweinfurt taking the lead again.
However, five strong final minutes were enough for Landsberg to keep the points at home after all. Stauder with a beautiful direct shot to make it 3:3 and captain Tobias Wedl with the 4:3 shortly before the end set the course for victory.
For the first time in the current season of the Ice Hockey Bayernliga HC Landsberg can celebrate a perfect weekend: they won both their home game against Schongau and in Amberg, taking six points from both games.
Frantisek Wagner scored after just 46 seconds to make it 1:0 against Schongau, but that was the end of the hosts' momentum for the time being, as Schongau then piled on the pressure and had several good opportunities to equalise.
Instead, Stauder scored to make it 2:0 for Landsberg after a fine assist from Grözinger; after that, the almost 900 spectators were treated to an open exchange of blows in which both teams gave each other nothing. After goals from Mosler and Hegner in the final phase, the Riverkings retained the upper hand with 4:1.
The game in Amberg was even closer. After the home team took the lead, Landsberg initially turned the game around with goals from Grözinger and Heß, before conceding a 2:2 equaliser while double short-handed. It was then up to Florian Reicheneder to make it 3:2 for the Riverkings in the powerplay, which they ultimately managed to hold on to despite furious attacks from the home side.
Thanks to the two wins, HC Landsberg are currently in fifth place with 19 points.
Thanks to an outstanding 5:1 victory in Pipinsried, TSV Landsberg secured the fall championship in Football Bayernliga Süd ahead of schedule. Before the 17th matchday, they lead the table with four points ahead of Schwaben Augsburg.
A difficult game was expected for Landsberg's renowned offense; after all, Pipinsried, which had been relegated to the Regionalliga, had only conceded ten goals in the entire season. But after just over four minutes, Cekic put Landsberg up 1:0.
After the equalizer for Pipinsried (12th), it was once again the hour of "goal machine" Nico Karger. With two goals before and one shortly after the break, he practically decided the game. Subsequently, Steffen Krautschneider also scored to make it 5:1. Karger (14) and Krautschneider (11) thus lead the scoring charts in the Bayernliga Süd.
In the standings, TSV Landsberg is in first place with 37 points, ahead of Schwaben Augsburg (33) and Heimstetten (32).
HC Landsberg has filled its last open spots in the squad and starts with the preparation games for the Bayernliga season 2023/24.
Two good acquaintances are the latest new signings of HC Landsberg for the 2023/24 season: Stephan Sailer (20) and Nico Miedl (19) come from the own junior team, have been active in the U20 DNL team so far, but have also helped out in the men's Oberliga. Last season, Miedl contributed 20 points in 23 games to the success of the youth team. Both young players occupy a defender position.
"We are looking forward to working with Stephan and Nico together," said Vice President Michael Grundei. "Our goal is always to bring out good players from our own youth and to integrate them into the first team. Both have already shown that one can rely on them and are top motivated.
TSV Landsberg is back at the top of the Bayernliga table. In front of a record-breaking crowd in Erlbach, Mölders' team won 1:0.
The narrow victory was enough to jump to the top, because Kottern's winning streak surprisingly snapped at 0:3 in Deisenhofen.
In front of more than 1400 spectators in Erlbach, Landsberg initially had a hard time with the very defensive hosts. After the break, however, Landsberg gained the upper hand and Cekik scored the decisive goal in the 64th minute after a brilliantly played counter-attack. In the final phase, they failed to increase their lead on several counterattacks, but the victory was no longer in danger.
