Arno Del Curto, what was your impression?
It was actually a good first-third of us. We had the Puck 70, 80 percent of the time in your Zone. But we had no proper goal-scoring opportunity and the two of you. In the middle third, I was surprised, because we lost the head a bit. It was too wild. In the last third it was better. And then we had two, three opportunities. But for the effort that we operated, we had too few chances. It is the element of Surprise is missing.
you also Saw good things?
The commitment appealed to me. And that they tried to do in the final third for a while, to play with Tempo. Two, three lines made the most excellent. Defensively, it was fine. What I liked: that we found the Balance between defensive control and power game. Either one way or the other. We need to learn.
what was it Like to coach after three days of Training the ZSC?
I thought it’ll be difficult for me. But eventually I realized: I can feel the player. I just couldn’t talk about it much, because I was hoarse.
Why are you hoarse?
I’ve talked a lot in the last few days. From the Morning until the evening. At some point, the voice failed.

Have you raged in the cabin?
no. The commitment was there. The train is missing on the goal. We need to change. The Tempo and moments of Surprise. But we had, after all, a lot of game shares.
What to expect in the Rematch in the indoor stadium?
the player make the next step. You shoot the goals, more Surprise inside and on the Powerplay better. But you can’t change in three days so much.
How was the feeling after 54 days in the gang?
What should I say? I was quiet inside. Because I believe that this team can still move a lot, a lot. (Interview: sg.)

every beginning is difficult. Rome wasn’t built in a day. Even the creation took seven days. It is, therefore, not surprising that Arno Del Curto was able to bring four days after its launch as a ZSC-Trainer, no wonder.
The Zurich struggled in the first game under his leadership, in good faith, but had no Luck and, above all, in the SCL Tigers with an opponent, the football-craft in perfection. The 0:1 was a logical result. The only goal was scored by Gagnon (18.) in Excess of after a quick combination, wherein the Zurich had out of the Box curls.
The Effort to make it better than before, it was easy to see the ZSC Lions from the first Puckeinwurf. And also, that you Del Curto has applied to run a lot and to put up with earlier noise work the opponent under pressure. However, you can impress easily, the SCL Tigers are not with the cunning tactician, Heinz Ehlers. Since the Dane leads their fortunes, the Zurich against you very hard. The defeat was the fourth in the fifth season of the duel, including the Cup.

Pettersson (48.) it was a direct shot dangerous Duke (50.) and Backman (53.) came from good positions for the final. And in the 58. Minute Suter hit from an acute angle to the crossbar.

And Mysports installed in the Ilfishalle vis-à-vis the benches high up in the stands “Arno-Cam”, which was addressed to the entire evening only to the Engadine, and every emotion, Yes, every grey hair Del Curtos captured.
The 62-Year-old did what he has done for the last 22 years He coached. Sometimes he said something on the tactics Board, he was a bit louder. But everything was in the frame. The first evening, as the ZSC-Coach was, for him, the awareness realm. You saw the potential of this team, but also their deficits. It is a matter of course, which it had earned in last year’s Playoff is still missing. But this is also, logically, after five months of disorientation.
No man for debuts
the failed debut for Del Curto must Mean nothing. And he is also not a novelty. His first two debuts at NLA-club Del Curto also failed. 16.
