Biel won 4-2 against Fribourg-Gottéron on Wednesday in the National League. The Seelanders reacted well after being trailing by two lengths after the initial third.
Gottéron had indeed started the game well, scoring by Jörg (8th) and Gundersen (11th). But Christian Dubé’s men did not last the distance. Biel returned to equality after 40 minutes thanks to successes from Rathgeb (25th) and Rajala (27th).
The decision was made in the final period. Haas scored twice (45th / 60th), the last goal being scored 36 seconds from the end when Hughes had left his cage.
Three losses in a row
Biel thus consolidates its second place in the standings with a fifth success in its last six matches. Freiburg is going through an area of turbulence with three consecutive defeats.
The Zurich Lions were beaten at home 3-2 by Rapperswil-Jona. The Lakers took the lead through Moy (7th) and Noreau (26th) before the Lions came back tied on a double from Texier (45th/55th). But Dünner handed the victory to the visitors with 35 seconds remaining.
