An offside goal in the 97th minute sweetened SV Ried’s return to the Bundesliga. While those from Upper Austria were happy with the added tailwind for their rising season after the 3-2 win against WSG Tirol, the Tyrolese struggled with the spotty goal. But they also grabbed at their own noses.
One thing became clear to Thomas Silberberger, the WSG coach, after the opening thriller: “We shouldn’t have left the field as losers.” Because his team gave up two advantages and also lost good against opportunities in the second half. Therefore, Silberberger considered self-criticism appropriate: “We left several match balls.”
The fact that Valentin Grubeck’s decisive goal was ultimately based on an incorrect decision by the referee also had to be criticized. “In the third goal, four Rieder were offside, adventurer that you can’t see something like that”Silberberger complained. The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) will only correct such errors at the beginning of the next season.
At Ried, the joy of the successful comeback was as great as the respect for the league. Coach Gerald Baumgartner had sent his team very defensively into the game. In the fourth minute, however, Zlatko Dedic used a penalty hand to guide the guests. “We could hardly train the three-man chain in central defense.”Baumgartner later put it on the record.
Fans “big difference” for players
The fact that his team returned repeatedly was also thanks to the support of the fans. “The hardcore fans pushed us forward, that was very important to us,” said the coach. 2,650 spectators had witnessed the return of the Innviertel to the country’s largest football stadium on site. “Playing again in front of an audience was indescribable. It’s a big difference for the players “said Marco Grüll, the scorer to make it 1-1.
Ried 3-2 afternoon against Tirol with a spot
“The victory is tailwind, but we know that it is not perfect yet”Baumgartner concluded. “After the victory we will not forget that we still have homework to do.”
Tough season of turmoil in a storm
Storm manager Christian Ilzer also has a lot of work to do. The 0-0 point at St. Pölten was what felt like the maximum for Graz. “The performance is not what you expected and expected”Ilzer said. The appearance suggested a difficult season of turmoil, for Ilzer himself a different reading is possible after the first round: after 2018 with the WAC (3: 4 in St. Pölten) and the year before with Wiener Austria (1: 3 in WSG). Tirol) Ilzer did not lose a Bundesliga opener for the first time.
The bad looks in the storm were not denied. “It was a very lucky point”Stefan Hierländer confessed after a match with a single real storm chance (Kevin Friesenbichler nodding). The captain referred to the completely changed playing area under Ilzer. “Today we cannot achieve this counter pressure. We were very lethargic against the ball. Then we get into trouble because we are always going too slow. “
The SKN under the direction of Robert Ibertsberger was already working a little more in front of 1,357 spectators. The coach gave the title to his team “Not very good yet, but good”. The newcomers, led by Israeli forward Don Hugi, were not bad in the 4-3-3 system. “Unfortunately, we do not reward ourselves for performance, but we can be particularly satisfied with performance.”Ibertsberger said.
