Awesome! The game was VERY fast. I've grown to think that we do not excel in fast games, but after the first period I had to change my mind.

Base -team clearly had the following tactic in mind: Let's run like blazes the first period, mix them good, get 5-0 lead, and then we'll see, if BIKO wants to continue to play in the second period. The problem was, the first period ended only 1-0 for them, not more. The start was absolutely staggering. We really got what we're paying for. Everybody had to run like mad to keep up with Base's attacks. Jani was brilliant in the goal with gluey fingers, and the defense got a very good snatch record. I have to mention Wolfgang here, who despite weekends floorball activities, managed to pull such an excellent show.

And that was it, basically. After the first breeze was over, Base slowed down a little. With pretty much equal number of players on both teams they probably figured that they'll kill themselves, if they continue with the same pace. We started to get chances to break through. They were very, very fast and eager around our goal, and you had to stay real sharp to keep them at bay, but their defense wasn't too good. Of all five goals we scored, two were done solo, meaning, they were careless with the ball in their end.

We got a tad unlucky with Base's second goal, it bounced from our defense, which is always frustrating. But because we could keep the game even for a considerable length of time, despite Base's mad attacks, Base players started to heat up. That caused them quite a few penalties, which broke their game down even more. We had two sittings as well, but just kept on defending, as before, so it wasn't such a huge change in our play.

Excellent game! Thank you all once more. See you in the next one.
