Big hurdles for Rapid ahead of mandatory win at Dundalk

On the last night of transfer, the Ritzmaier arrived; otherwise, the center would have been declared a disaster area. But the loan (made possible by the payment of a Barnsley salary) is not against Dundalk. The left foot could come back in the derby.

Lion Schuster, captain of Rapid II, will have more than six in demand in the remaining eight competitive games.

Offensive variant?

The night before the game, interim manager Manfred Nastl revealed that an offensive (emergency) variant is being considered in the technical team: “Knasmüllner or Ibrahimoglu can also play from further back than usual in center.” Despite the defensive problems at 3: 4 in Ried, the attacking court players would again be the majority. Christoph Knasmüllner emphasizes: “I don’t care if I play six or ten. We have to be more compact and win.” On the return of his goal instinct, the coach said: “I don’t need any explanation for that. I’m glad I got back to the right place in front of goal.”

If the talented Melih Ibrahimoglu were to start, it would be a first for the Viennese with Turkish roots – so far, the 20-year-old has been a joker for up to 20 minutes with the pros.
