HC Motor Ceske Budejovice U20 won 9-2 at BK Mlada Boleslav U20, and the game was effectively decided inside the opening 20 minutes. The visitors scored five unanswered goals in the first period and never had to defend a one-goal lead.
It was 0-5 after the first and the margin only grew: Mlada Boleslav got two back in the middle frame but conceded three more, trailing 2-8 after 40 minutes. Motor added the game's final goal in the third to close it out in regulation at 9-2.
The number that carries it is the first-period 0-5 split — Motor's five-goal opener matched more than twice the home side's entire output. Mlada Boleslav scored both of their goals in the second period, the only frame they did not lose.
