Faistenau caused a big sensation in the third round of the state cup on Wednesday: following Hallein, the state league team also threw out the regional league team Grünau from the competition. The new SG Gneis/ASK/PSV might also surprise.
“The opponent underestimated us. They rested their best players in Petrit Nika and Valdrin Kadrija, and that ultimately paid off,” explained Faistenau’s player coach Marco Lämmerhofer following the 4:3 home win. The outsider led 2-1 once morest the Walsers shortly before the break, and in the 45th minute the 300 or so spectators saw a dream goal. The outstanding Wolfgang Klaushofer lifted Grünau goalie Valerian Rehrl from the middle line – 3:1.
Grünau coach Josef Bauer angry
After regarding an hour, there was an unpleasant scene in Faistenau: Julian Feiser saw the red card for an assault. With a man down, the regional league came into play better and were even able to equalize with goals from Maximilian Pössl (62nd) and Moussa Dembele (67th). “Despite the goals conceded, my team didn’t lose their composure, I’m really proud of my lads,” said Lämmerhofer, who witnessed a heated final phase. In the 88th minute, Stefan Federer was the next Grünauer to leave the field. With a double advantage, Gerald Greiner made his hat trick perfect and shot the underdog into the round of 16. “Unfortunately, we missed too many chances. All in all, we did a lot of damage to the club’s image with this game. That will definitely have consequences,” Grünau coach Josef Bauer said angrily following the elimination.
