After the 1-0 victory at CSKA Moscow in the Europa League, WAC also wants to continue on the path to success in the league. With the guest appearance at WSG Tirol (Sunday, 2:30 pm on the live ticker), Lavanttalter, who has been unable to do so thus far, has a chance to reach the top half of the table.
The Tyrolese, led by coach Thomas Silberberger, want to avoid it, who puts the power aspect into play before the duel: “We hope they still feel the tensions of Moscow on Sunday.”
WAC: “That pushes us forward in terms of emotions”
After the 1-0 win at CSKA Moscow on Thursday, Liendl and Co. flew home on Friday feeling good. He went straight to Innsbruck, where coach Ferdinand Feldhofer scheduled a training session.
In the Europa League, the WAC is about to move into the knockout phase for the first time after brave performances. “That pushes us forward in terms of emotions. That will really do us good for the next difficult tasks that are to come,” said Mario Leitgeb.
WSG Tirol is still looking forward to the home game against Feyenoord Rotterdam next Thursday, against which a draw would be enough for second place. Not a bad requirement for the Carinthians, after all, they are more successful away from home than at home this season. Three wins and just one loss result in second place behind Salzburg in the Bundesliga away table. Overall, the third of preseason before 10th round games was seventh just below the line.
“The WAC is almost just Liendl”
The Wattener has one more point on the account and to defend a series against the WAC. Since the promotion in 2019, no game against the “wolves” has been lost. “A nasty team that has a lot of strength. They have been riding a wave of success for two years, they have a strong team and it is difficult to play in it,” Silberberger warned about the opponent.
He especially likes Liendl, the heart of WAC’s midfield. “Liendl is not the WAC, but if you look at the statistics, the WAC is almost just Liendl. If it is not, the WAC is not a little better than us,” Silberberger emphasized, referring to 17 goals in all competitions. , in which the 35-year-old had his legs in play. “For me, he is currently the best midfielder in Austria. You have to keep him under control. There is no man scoring, but he receives special attention.”
The last performance of his team was good. “We want to build on these achievements and make Sunday a success. We will certainly have the best opportunities again, but ultimately we must seize them,” Silberberger said. The stress and strains of well-traveled guests could become a major factor. Because “tiredness cannot be eliminated simply, not even with euphoria.”
