Bundesliga: Hartberg turns 0-2 at a disadvantage at Admira

Emanuel Aiwu (10th) and Erwin Hoffer (19th) quickly gave Admira a 2-0 lead. Dario Tadic (42.) scored his fifth goal of the season with a free-kick before the half-time whistle. After switching ends, Thomas Rotter (60th) equalized after a corner kick. Another corner gave Hartberg the win on the road thanks to Chabbi, who had just replaced Tadic.

After their fifth loss in a row, Admira remains at the bottom, Hartberg is seventh for the moment. For Admira, who started the game with a series of defeats and consequently little self-confidence, the first 20 minutes went as he wished. Hartberg had more game and especially the ball, but the goals were scored by the local team, with the help of the opponent and also with a bit of luck.

Double strike gives Admira a dreamy start

First Rajko Rep irritated his goalkeeper Rene Swete with a corner kick, Aiwu dusted him off, suspiciously offside. So Hartberg’s offside trap was not broken when a pass to Maximilian Breunig, Swete saved twice against the German, but the ball fell at the feet of Hoffer who was ready to shoot. The efficiency that was lacking in the 3-0 draw at WSG Tirol appeared suddenly.

The Hartbergers, who lost 3: 5 to Austria in the round of 16 of the ÖFB Cup during the week, did not give up. Tadic often remained the sole cheerleader in attack, Styria’s top striker occupying Admira’s defense. This initially defended the leadership without major problems. However, shortly before the break, Tadic took the penalty for the next goal. Morten Hjulmand hit the striker in an attempt to clear the foot, with the penalty placed Admiras Andreas Leitner had no chance.

Hartberg takes a spin after a break

The second half started very badly for Hartberg: midfielder Bakary Nimaga had to leave the field. The Oststeirer tried hard, Tadic and Rep missed from an acute angle to Leitner. The Slovenian’s post-attempt corner kick finally brought the guests the Rotter draw, which he easily beat his opponent.

Stefan Maierhofer, who was not included in the team, now saw Admira stagger. Hartberg was playfully the most stable team. First, it was Admira who came close to goal with her next real shot at goal after a 60-minute break through Tomislav Tomic (79th). Hartberg finally managed to turn things around from another corner: Chabbi, who had been substituted just over a minute earlier, scored after Luckeneder extended his head.

Voices for the game:

Damir Buric (Admira’s coach): “At the beginning we played the game very well and we awarded ourselves two goals. The penalty situation before the break was the sticking point for me. I don’t want to judge 911. But maybe you don’t have to get that close to your opponent. The main problem is the pieces from set pieces, which go through the games. We are working on it, but it hasn’t worked yet. We make too many simple mistakes. Of course, the disappointment now is great. “

Markus Schopp (Hartberg’s coach): “I am very relieved to have won after this match. We went 2-0 down out of nowhere, our opponents were in front of our goal twice. The penalty before the break was tremendously important. In general, we were good at the game. The team invested a lot and we awarded ourselves three points. Standard situations made life easier for us. When you have a victory, things become much easier. I am confident in the next few weeks. “
