2023-08-27 03:23:34

SCR Altach has won a derby once morest Austria Lustenau for the first time in the Bundesliga. The 3-0 on Saturday is symbolic of a different approach under coach Joachim Standfest, which has so far produced showable results. For Austria Lustenau, on the other hand, it is already clear that the second year of the Bundesliga might be difficult. But you don’t have to press the reset button, said coach Markus Mader. “We are not computers, we are people.”

While green and white Austria is still waiting for their first win of the new season, Altach has had a successful start to the season. With seven points, Altach are significantly better than in previous years and at least until Sunday followingnoon they are in fourth place behind Salzburg, Sturm Graz and Rapid. “We’re on the right track there,” emphasized Standfest in the Sky interview. “It’s just fun to watch the team step on the gas, sacrifice themselves and continue to play even following the 2-0, 3-0 lead.”

The SCR kickers delivered a structured performance in the away game and were very secure in the defensive block. Last but not least, Standfest highlighted the mentality of such players as striker Gustavo Santos. Although the Brazilian didn’t have enough strength for 90 minutes, he gave everything. “We were just compact, kept putting pinpricks forward, were aggressive in defending forward,” he said.

Lustenau coach Mader, on the other hand, was not at all satisfied with the derby performance, but he also addressed the extremely unfortunate start caused by goalkeeper Domenik Schierl’s own goal. “We are people who work hard every day. People who also make mistakes,” he analyzed. In general, despite the modest yield of two points so far, he is not afraid when looking into the future.

“We swam on a wave of success last year, we might laugh. It’s not going so well now, but we can’t stick our heads in the sand and see everything negatively,” said Mader. “We’ll analyze that and draw conclusions from it. I’m 100 percent convinced that we’ll find our way back to success.”
