Biel started the game at full gas but it was Zürich who opened the score at 1:13 when Robert Nilsson did profit from a pass by Luca Cunti.

And this time it was for the game winning goal. Gaetan Haas has now six points in three games and Biel profits by jumping into the third place with seven points 

Matthieu Tschantre (Biel captain): "Today we were more fresh than last Saturday against Bern. We had a better quality in the game. Our line was particularly good tonight but that’s because we know each other for years. It get's more easy. A player like Tim Stepleton didn't score yet but he does a great job at defense. Not all the foreigners are able to do that for the team."
