HK Liepaja handled HK Prizma 4-2 in regulation, and the middle period was the difference. A two-goal second stretched a one-goal game into a cushion the visitors never recovered.
Liepaja took the first period 1-0 and carried that lead to the intermission. They went 2-1 in the second to lead 3-1 after 40 minutes, and the teams traded goals in the third, 1-1, for the 4-2 final.
The number that matters is four goals across three periods, one in each frame except the second, where Liepaja doubled up. Prizma never scored first in any period and never drew closer than two after the second intermission.
