Kladno’s start came when it took the lead after only 85 seconds. Although Pytlík did not overcome the visiting goalkeeper Lukeš with his first attempt, the puck swam to him again after a barrier in front of the visiting goal area and the young striker had no problem sending him to the exposed goal.

In the end of the sixth minute, Průžek was able to equalize, but the Kladno goalkeeper Bow was against. On the contrary, the Knights soon rejoiced again. Sigismund hid his shot behind one of Karlovy Vary’s players and surprised Lukeš. After half a third, Zikmund was close to another shot, but this time he did not move the situation. Before the break, Plekanec failed to arrive.

The home team did not hide in a defensive shell through a two-goal lead, instead they were still a more active team on the ice. Although they did not use a power play, but then they managed to defend themselves in the event of weakness, and the opportunities on their side began to increase again. Plekanec fired dangerously in the 34th minute within a few seconds, and after Dotchin’s shooting, Hlav was not missing much.
–
The people of Karlovy Vary then made a bad change and it was very expensive, although they defended themselves in weakening. Just two seconds after the penalty expired, Beran increased it to 3-0, when, after Melk’s attempt, he was strong enough on the goal post and overtook Lukeš. The Lamb could lower, but Bow was attentive.
–
Right at the beginning of the third act, Lukeš won another mini-duel with Plekance, but Bow did just as well in another attempt at Beránek. In the weakening, Pytlík significantly angered the guests, but he did not mature on Lukeš for the second time in the match. Then, just as Pytlík was on the bench a moment later, a stick helped Bow after Černoch’s run.
–
In the 55th minute, Baránek followed a minute on Wood’s penalty bench and the guests played five to three. Instead of drawing hope, a disgrace came: Plekanec fortunately added a fourth goal after a sprint over three quarters of the field. Kubík then sealed the result at the end.
