Cardiff Devils came from behind to earn a 4-1 win over Guildford Flames in the Challenge Cup.

Former Devil Josh Waller gave Guildford an early lead in the Welsh capital, before Reid Duke drew the hosts level.

Kohen Olischefski and Ryan Barrow both struck in the second period, and Josh Batch added a late fourth as Cardiff earned victory at the Vindico Arena.

The win moves Devils into fourth in Group A and keeps them in the hunt for a place directly into the semi-finals, while Guildford finished their cup campaign in last with only two wins from ten games.

Devils return to action against Coventry Blaze in the Challenge Cup on Wednesday (19:30 GMT).
