Mountain crumbles into shark infested waters

The common theme of this years events, where the group winners have gone on to the final continues... 

IH Sayaluca Lugano and IHC Malcantone both made the final undefeated.. at this point, someones 0 had to go. 

Both teams had a clear way through in their respective semi final games, making for an exciting final with a battle for swiss supremacy. 

It came down to who wanted it more... who had the determination to give the extra effort as this game made IISHF history with the first title event going into a penalty shootout with a final game score of 0 - 0. 

The final game, was end to end hockey, great hits, superb shots however equally matched by super goalies at both ends..  the noise from the crowd.. Super Goalie Super Goalie! 

Going into the shootout, only one team can win and someone had to score but who...  In the end it was IH Malcantone scoring 3 goals to Lugano's 1 bringing the game to a dramatic climax. 

IHC Malcantone are your IISHF Men Challenge Cup winners!!
