Winning goal in minute 87
Austria Vienna against LASK LIVE from 5pm
Vienna's Austria turned a 0:1 deficit against LASK into a 2:1 home win. Captain Manfred Fischer scored the winning goal in the 87th minute.
With a late 2:1 home win against LASK, Vienna's Austria crowned the strongest game so far under new coach Stephan Helm in the Austrian Football League. Captain Manfred Fischer scored in the 87th minute on Sunday to give the dominant "Veilchen" their first home win over LASK in a long time. Before that, Linz, who were weak for long stretches, had gone against the run of play and scored through Marin Ljubicic (19'). Maurice Malone equalized immediately (20').
A black streak ended for Austria. The Viennese had not been able to celebrate a "three-pointer" against LASK for nine home games in a row. Linz lost for the third time in a row in the league. There is still a lot missing from the dominant possession soccer that coach Thomas Darazs envisions.
Both teams went into the game with a lengthy injury list. LASK had two prominent absentees compared to the previous week. Jörg Siebenhandl was in goal in place of Tobias Lawal (thigh muscle), but the absence of Robert Zulj was particularly significant. The offensive powerhouse suffered a broken nose during the 1:1 draw in the Europa League qualifier against FCSB Bucharest (1:1) on Thursday. Sascha Horvath moved up a step and Austria youngster Enis Safin made his Bundesliga debut for LASK in the center of midfield.
Minute's silence for Christoph Daum
After a moment of silence for the deceased Austria double coach Christoph Daum, the game got off to a lively start - with the hosts, who were wearing mourning florals, having a clear advantage. Cheers erupted after just one minute, but the supposed lead by Malone did not count. Referee Christian-Petru Ciochirca penalized a push by the striker against LASK defender Philipp Ziereis.
Dominik Fitz aimed just wide of the near corner after a nice hook (3rd) before Linz became dangerous for the first time. Valon Berisha appeared in the orphaned rear area but failed to hit the ball at all. On the direct counter-attack, Nik Prelec was only just caught out by Ziereis (7'). A little later, the defender caused a penalty alarm with a challenge on Malone, but Ciochirca rightly allowed play to continue. A Fitz volley - half assist, half shot - was cleared off the line (12'), but the next Violet attacking move was applauded by Helm. Darazs, on the other hand, was often left shaking his head on the touchline. The Violets managed to get into the danger zone with simple moves.
Nevertheless, the score was 0:1 in the 19th minute when Austria goalkeeper Samuel Sahin-Radlinger challenged Abubakr Barry, who lost track of the ball and played straight into the legs of Valon Berisha. The latter crossed for Ljubicic and the Croatian, who was searching for form, thanked him with his first goal of the season. However, the other side scored straight away. Malone successfully dived into a Gruber cross from half field (20').
The first half continued with Violett in control of the game, but with fewer concrete opportunities - and ended with a double chance for LASK. Moses Usor was just blocked at the end of a counter-attack (44'), and Sahin-Radlinger was on hand to meet a Ziereis header from the following corner kick. The German clearly beat Aleksandar Dragovic in an aerial challenge. However, the foreign returnee was also allowed to direct a compact back line after the change.
For the time being, Austria failed to convert their increased chances into goals. Malone had no luck with a volley (52') and against Siebenhandl (56'). The eye-catching new striker provided Fitz with an ideal pass shortly afterwards. However, the Austria playmaker lost control of the ball after a close hook against Siebenhandl (66').
Winning goal from Austria captain Fischer
LASK were able to achieve partial success in the final phase with fresh forces - including Jerome Boateng, who was accompanied by whistles when he came on as a substitute. However, Austria remained more dangerous. Siebenhandl made a successful save from Malone (83'), but had no chance when Fischer scored the winner. LASK defender Filip Stojkovic served the ball to the Austria captain, who left-footed the onrushing Maxim Talowjerow and fired in a powerful right-footed shot.
