The first final game confirmed the observations throughout the season that two very equal teams stepped on the same path in the decisive march for gold this year. The coaches of both teams reminded before the series that the game in different formations and the performance of the goalkeepers will play an important role. In the first match, there was no chance to be sure of the strength of the teams in the numerical majority, because throughout the game there was not a single rejection! The match referees Gints Zviedrītis and Yevgenijs Grishkevičs should be commended, who allowed the game to be played on the verge of breaking the rules, but at the same time kept the reins of the game in their hands.

In the last post, preference was given to youth. Zemgales/ 22-year-old Marius Bajaruns-Galejs entered the LBTU goal instead of the playing goalkeeper coach Rihards Zimermanis (31). Mogo/LSPA was caught by the very young Linard Feldberg (18) instead of Henry Anch, who had his 34th birthday on the day of the match. Feldberg played the game more successfully, while Bajarun-Galey allowed two pucks after shooting from a distance and did not force the puck in the decisive goal, which the 21-year-old pushed into the goal Mogo/ LSPA player Rolan Vasilijevs. Mogo/LSPA coach Īrts Ankipānas’ trust in the young players was justified.
