First triumph at the Spengler Cup
Cheering fail at Ambri-Piotta causes laughter
The Ambri stars are overjoyed after winning the drama game against Sparta Prague. For some, a childhood dream comes true, others are already announcing a long night of partying. After the victory in the penalty shootout, there were also two premature celebrations to talk about.
1/18
Huge rejoicing at Ambri-Piotta. The Leventine win the Spengler Cup for the first time.
“It’s indescribable,” said striker Dominic Zwerger to SRF, “it goes down in Ambri’s history books. Now we celebrate.” With a laugh, Zwerger also takes the cheering fail before Inti Pestoni’s penalty decision: “At first I thought there were only three shooters because it’s an international tournament. At that point I thought it was over. Later I said Janne had held him. In the end it was still enough. I do not give a shit. Now let’s celebrate.”
Coach Cereda announces party
Nando Eggenberger, who was loaned to Ambri by the SCRJ Lakers for a month, was also beaming. «As a child, I always watched the Spengler Cup. To win it yourself now is perfect », said the Churer.
Meanwhile, coach Luca Cereda was happy for his players: “The team was on a mission here and fought hard for it. I’m very proud of the boys. Now let’s celebrate.” It’s going to be a long night for Ambri.
Bürgler brakes fixed plans of the Leventine
Except perhaps for Dario Bürgler, who, like Pestoni, confidently converted his attempt in the penalty shoot-out. «On January 2nd we will play championship again. At my age it takes a long time to recover. That’s why it’s important not to overdo it, »explained the 35-year-old. (times/hon)
