After the last-minute defeat once morest Austria Klagenfurt, Vienna Austria was bubbling up a bit. Four games in the championship group of the Bundesliga, no win and lost valuable points four times in the final minutes. “We are stupid, stupid and naive. Every time we give up the game in the last few minutes, it’s just bitter,” was “Veilchen” top performer Manfred Fischer upset on Sunday following the 2-1 loss to his opponent for a European Cup starting place.
Coach Peter Pacult’s Klagenfurt team, on the other hand, celebrated their first win in the championship group following three defeats thanks to Kosmas Gkezos, who scored twice – the Greek had chilled a penalty kick in the goal in injury time. In the race for a top 5 place, the Carinthians closed sixth with 18 points to Vienna Austria (19) and Rapid (20) six games before the end of the season. The favorites, on the other hand, are still waiting for the first sense of achievement following the fourth game following the division of points.
Against LASK (2: 2), Salzburg (3: 3) and Rapid (3: 3), Michael Wimmer’s team recently lost three possible victories. For the German, it was the first defeat on the Austria coaching bench in the fifth home game since taking over in winter. “We had nine decent games, some very good ones. Now we’ve lost a game. Nevertheless, I won’t quarrel with the team, they have quality,” Wimmer tried to keep calm. His eleven had created a few chances to score, but before the duel at Sturm Graz on Wednesday (6.30 p.m.) there were also “a lot of negative things” to discuss.
Manuel Polster in particular will want to forget the game as quickly as possible. The 20-year-old left winger brought Klagenfurt’s Solomon Bonnah down impetuously in the penalty area shortly before the end. “It was absolutely unfocused,” annoyed Wimmer, who had also shown himself surprised by the changed basic order of Klagenfurt with a five-man chain.
Another negative topic for Wiener Austria will be the first goal conceded. Despite intensive preparation, the “Veilchen” conceded a goal from a corner kick once morest the standard specialists from Carinthia. “It’s particularly annoying because we’ve been talking regarding it the whole week that the standards in Klagenfurt are going to the second pole,” said Wimmer. Fischer was visibly angry: “That annoys me most of all. Doing a video analysis even more often, even more precisely and even more specifically, where it’s only regarding defending the second pole, that’s not possible. I’m completely at a loss for words.”
However, his own performance was “completely crap”, added Fischer, “the coach should actually slap each of us off.” Wimmer emphasized that his team “is not yet as stable as we would have hoped”. Perhaps there has been too much backslapping in the past few weeks.
However, the permanently negative topic of licensing should soon be history. The Viennese submitted everything to the Bundesliga protest committee on time, as board member Gerhard Krisch confirmed in the first instance following the eligibility to play for the coming season was not granted. A decision will be made by Thursday at the latest, but it might also be on Monday or Tuesday. Some guarantees are said to have been set up as financial security for the existing security. According to reports, however, the probability that these guarantees will become effective in the future is low.
Pacult, on the other hand, was in a great mood on Sunday followingnoon following the Klagenfurt team had won their first game in Vienna. “We are happy regarding this success. We are very happy to take the three with us and then we will see what comes out in the next few weeks,” said the Viennese, whose team has already scored 18 standard goals this season. The recipe for success? “You’re beheading well. And our top Greek is doing well once more,” said Pacult regarding match winner Gkezos and grinned.
