With just over half the game played, the visitors Wolfsburg took the lead through Tyler Worley, and began the hunt to send Norrbottenlaget out.

The first meeting ended 4–3 to Luleå.

Seven minutes into the third period, however, Konstantin Komarek leveled the match at 1–1 after a hard direct shot, and gave Luleå the advantage in the doubleheader.

Despite the fact that the game was not dazzling and that the goals did not come in for Luleå, they solved it.

“Hats off to...”

With tenths of a game left, the game was nailed again to cheers from the stands.

- Luleå does what is required.

But hats off to Wolfsburg who are making an outstanding effort with a decimated team, says SVT Sports expert Jonas Andersson.

Now the quarter-finals await the CHL champions from 2015. But there is work to be done.

- Luleå has desperately struggled to create the dangerous scoring chances and score goals.

But they manage it, and still radiate a collective self-confidence.
