The Schwenninger Wild Wings defeat the Straubing Tigers clearly - game 7 decides on the semi -finals

The Schwenninger Wild Wings defeated the Straubing Tigers in a clear 4-0 victory and thus forced a crucial game 7. The best man at the Wild Wings was goalkeeper Joacim Eriksson, who showed a strong game and was rewarded with a shutout. The Straubinger led in the goal statistics in phases, but could not take their chances. The coaches of both teams expressed themselves optimistically before the decisive game. While Straubing relies on the home advantage, Schwenningen is confident that they can choose game 7.

A semi-final input for Schwenningen would crown a strong season, but would also have an economic impact. The managing director of Wild Wings, Stefan Wagner, explains that the team could possibly make higher salary demands for the next season, which would lead to increasing costs. Nevertheless, he is satisfied with the team and believes that they are on the right track to develop.

With regard to the squad for the coming season, Wagner is optimistic that the majority of the team can be kept. However, some players are expected to leave the team and that improvements have to be made in some positions.

The Wild Wings also developed a grower growth of around 900 spectators with their strong appearance in the playoffs. Wagner sees a way to further expand the location and to establish itself as a fixture in the league.
