Stöger after a draw: Austria a project with “ups and downs”



[ad_1]

Looking at the game plan, one or the other Austrian fan was delighted. A grateful guest, Admira, arrived at the Generali Arena on the third day, as you may have thought.

But anyone who assumed that the “Veilchen” would triumph was disappointed. Coach Peter Stöger’s team has to be content with a 2: 2 victory against Maria Enzersdorfer, who had no points before the game.

“We have not been able to step up every time we were in the lead,” the last “Veilchen” master coach told “Sky” after the game. “We had good phases and opportunities. If then you lead with only one goal, something can always happen, and in this case it was the same.”

That such results could occur more frequently with violets can be seen from the 54-year-old man’s statements. “It is very clear that we will have ups and downs. We are starting a project that will definitely be very successful at some point. You can assume that because we have many guys who are of quality. It is a maturing process.”

“Defensive behavior too easy”

His team still has to put up with criticism, especially on defense, the favorites are not saddled. “The defensive behavior was too easy. The opponent didn’t have to work too hard to get to his goals,” said Stöger.

But not everything was bad, according to the former Dortmund manager. “There were also things that were absolutely fine, but we did not take advantage of our superiority, our chances as the best team and then they will penalize you in the final phase. Then you did not deserve the three points either.”

“I have to close the bag”

Young Benedikt Pichler was positively noted, who was able to score his first goal of the season at 2-1 in the meantime, but the 23-year-old is also sober after the match.

“We did very well from the beginning, then there was a phase where we changed again and we got the goal out of nowhere. In the second half we got it back, we took the lead and we got the tie out of nowhere. Normally we have to close out. the stock market. We are in a development phase. “



A duel between the Austrian attacker and Emanuel Aiwu caused a stir in the second half. Admira’s kicker dropped Pichler in his own penalty area, but referee Kijas’ whistle fell silent, to the scorer’s misunderstanding.

“He’s not looking at the ball, he’s just holding me. I’m surprised it’s not a penalty. We should have decided it ourselves at the end.”

Austria’s captain Alexander Grünwald, who was only substituted in the 60th minute, also speaks of a “long road” that the “Veilchen” still have to go. “Not everything was perfect, that was not to be expected either. We tried to improve the good and develop what needs to be developed and thus raise our level.”

Returnees cheered morale

Damir Buric, who took over as coach at Admira last week, is probably happier with the counterattack than those responsible in Austria. Admira had a disastrous start to the season. After a 1: 4 in Rapid and a 0: 5 in the Lower Austrian derby against St. Pölten, at least a small rehabilitation was achieved against “Veilchen”.

“For a short time we have set some priorities in training,” says the 56-year-old about his second term in Südstadt, which has been short to date. Defensive behavior with standards will be added as a new focus, Buric says. “We have little time and I am sure that next week will be different.”

The Admira coach praises his team. “Kudos to the team for showing a mindset today and always believing in coming back and changing the game.”

Breunig: “It went very well for me”

Maximilian Breunig was an integral part of the comeback. The 20-year-old drew in his second Bundesliga match, his first from the start, which ultimately meant the first point.

“We tested the forms of play with Max all week, what he can do. We decided for him today and later Stefan (Maierhofer) joined us and that’s what makes the team strong. That ensured that the team is variable. We were lucky, but we didn’t take a point undeservedly, “Buric said.

The attacker is naturally happy that he was able to secure a point for his team. “Just one goal in my debut at my new club. It was really good for me today,” Breunig said.

“We have shown a good reaction today, in contrast to the last two games. We entered well and then unfortunately we got 1-0. Then we lowered our heads again. But we came back well and got the important 1-1 He scored before the break and deserved take a point with us for our fighting performance ”, analyzes the forward.

Next Saturday, Admira welcomes the newcomer from Ried in the southern part of the city. Austria has to go to Tyrol.
