Happy Cologne kept the curse intact, sad I wasn't there to help with it.

 

All is right in the world.

GM 23 - Cologne Express vs. Vasteras Iron Eagles

 

This is Game 5 of the Renaissance Cup. Cologne looks for a chance to clinch a championship to cap off a three-peat while Vasteras looks to stay alive in the battle for the cup. Both teams gave their all. It was a back and forth match with only one instance in which a single team scored twice consecutively. There was a difference of 2 in the shots of goal with Vasteras slightly getting the lead 31-29. The Vasteras Iron Eagles would be the first to score with Ellis Woolfenden getting the marker. That would be the only goal in the frame. Vasteras would battle hard to keep that one goal. With less than two minutes to go in the second, however, Phillip Rave would tie it up for Cologne. The Express were smelling a cup victory, all they needed was to break the tie. Three minutes into the third, a goal would come but it wasn't the Express getting the marker. The Iron Eagles got a marker from Gustav Mattias to regain the lead. The Express needed to push hard. They did. Al Land would tie it up yet again. That would be the last goal in regulation, bringing it down to a dramatic overtime. An early penalty gave the Express a chance to win it. They did. Joshua Schwarzer scored the cup winning goal for the Express.
