WSG Tirol against promoted GAK LIVE from 5pm
GAK earned their first point in the Bundesliga since May 2007. The team from Graz drew 0-0 at WSG Tirol in the 2nd round on Saturday. After a disjointed match with hardly any highlights, the team from Watten remain unbeaten in the new season. Coach Philipp Semlic's team opened the campaign with a 2-1 win at Altach, while GAK lost 3-2 to runners-up Salzburg.
The two clubs had last met in a competitive match in 2021 in the 2nd Cup round, when WSG had the better end. Although the home side had the advantage this time around, the attacking performance from both sides was lukewarm at the Tivoli Stadium in Innsbruck. Next week, WSG visit Rapid in Vienna, while GAK host Blau-Weiß Linz.
The Tyroleans dominated possession in the opening minutes. The plan was obviously to use a lot of good passes to get into the GAK penalty area. The first tentative approaches to the opposing goal were made after around ten minutes, but the home side - like the visitors - were not dangerous at first. GAK had the best chance of the first half a little later on: Dennis Dressel shot wide right from a central position in the penalty area in the 34th minute.
After the break, WSG tried two new players on the attacking flanks: Quincy Butler's speed was to open up more space than Mahamadou Diarra had previously, and Tobias Anselm (for Stefan Skrbo) came into the game. However, Watten continued to struggle to create chances. When good attempts were made, the last pass was usually inaccurate, a run was not right or the GAK were simply too careful defensively.
In the 65th minute, Anselm was unable to break through in the middle after Hinterseer-Fersler, and two minutes later Marco Gantschnig cleared the ball with his head for a corner. Lukas Hinterseer would have been lurking in the middle. There were no further notable opportunities. Graz only became dangerous again in stoppage time when Tio Cipot shot over from close range after a Stangl pass from the right.
