In the early afternoon, the SV Guntamatic Ried bus will set off for Bregenz tomorrow, Thursday, where the Innviertel team will meet Austria Lustenau on Friday evening (6 p.m.). The Lustenauer stadium is currently being rebuilt, so the Bundesliga relegated team has to move to the state capital. You will spend the night in a hotel in Götzis. On the journey home, which will probably last until two in the morning, the Rieders want to take three points with them to the Innviertel.
The pressure has increased after two bitter home defeats against Rapid 2 (2:3) and St. Pölten (2:4), the fans are becoming restless before the “key games” against the top teams Lustenau, Kapfenberg and Admira Wacker. After starting the season with six games without conceding a goal, goalkeeper and captain Andreas Leitner had to fetch the ball out of his own goal no less than nine times in the last three games. “Of course that hurts a lot. I think that we have analyzed our mistakes well. We have to correct them. Austria Lustenau is a very disciplined and experienced team that doesn’t allow much. But we are going to Vorarlberg to start a new run of success.” said Leitner after training on Wednesday in an interview with OÖNachrichten.

With a success in Vorarlberg, SV Ried could increase their lead over the Bundesliga relegated Lustenau to seven points. In the event of a defeat, the previously undefeated “draw king” (three wins, six draws) would move within one point of Ried. When asked whether his team was in a kind of “crisis mode” during the international break, coach Maximilian Senft answered in the OÖN interview: “That is a statement that is made very quickly and very early on by many sides in Ried. Whether it We are not interested in what is then called crisis mode. We are concerned with making things better now. The criticism is justified, we were anything but satisfied with the games .” Now it’s about implementation and a corresponding “reaction” in Lustenau, said Senft.
