Vikings ask Swiss to the football dance
Seven games, seven wins. The Vienna Vikings are probably the most consistent franchise in the European League of Foootball (ELF). When it comes to their home ground, however, Vienna's flagship team has yet to settle down. They are currently playing in Wr. Neustadt, just like on Saturday against the Helvetic Mercenaries.
The Vienna Vikings' home game in the European League of Football (ELF) on Saturday (18) against the Helvetic Mercenaries is no longer a new venue, as it will be their second match there. "We felt completely at home at the premiere in the ERGO Arena," nods Vikings main shareholder Robin Lumsden. He also received good feedback from all sides: "Players, coaches, fans, sponsors - a great result for us."
Players and coaches praised the pitch in particular. "The best we've ever played on in the ELF," said head coach Chris Calaycay.
The fact that the Viennese franchise had to travel to Lower Austria at all "wasn't something we took lightly", admitted Lumsden. "The Vienna Vikings are ambassadors for the city of Vienna in Austria and Europe, bringing added value."
However, the corresponding appreciation on the part of the city of Vienna leaves a lot to be desired - and not just when it comes to the stadium. "We bring in just as many spectators on our gamedays as the tennis tournament in the Stadthalle. Now we've had to move to Lower Austria because there was simply no alternative for us in Vienna this season."
The eighth win in the eighth match of the season also seems to be without alternative. The league newcomers from Switzerland have only managed one win in six games so far.
