The Zurich Lions have won their first ice hockey match at the Europa Cup against the London Knights, 1-0.

The Lions, who lost their last two league games, went 51 minutes into the game before scoring.

After losing twice in a row, to Rapperswil and Langnau, the Lions look well-placed to take on the Munich Barons on Saturday.

The Barons tied 2-2 with Slovan Bratislava on Friday.
