The lineups are here!
In the first year, the championship, cup and super cup triple was even achieved. After a rise in football history to this day, only Rasgrad and Estonian club Levadia Tallinn have made it.
In 2010, oligarch and pharmaceutical businessman Kyril Domustschiev bought the club, took it to the top national league the following year and won every championship thereafter.
In 2009, FC Razgrad took over Ludogorez’s colors. A year later a football fairy tale began that continues to this day.
A quick look at Vienna: there Rapid conceded 1: 2 against Molde immediately after starting the second half.
While LASK’s financial bankruptcy was prevented in 2000, Razgrad found himself in a financial dilemma five years later. The final whistle for the Bulgarians was the result.
The team was founded in 1945. In 1997 it merged with Antibiotic Rasgrad, which shows a parallel with today’s opponents, because LASK also took over FC Linz in 1997.
A little more information about the enemy before we start.
Rapid drew against Molde just before the break.
One of the beneficiaries of the mini-rotation could be Marvin Potzmann: “It is a privilege to play the Europa League. We want to represent Austria well.” For Rasgrad today it’s about not finishing the group stage without points.
Although LASK coach Dominik Thalhammer previously emphasized that he wanted to play for the strongest team, this is not possible in today’s game. In addition to injured players like Peter Michorl or Mamoudou Karamoko, captain Gernot Trauner also stayed at home: his wife Judith is expecting the third child.
It is also a breakthrough for the WAC today. Even a draw against Feyenoord Rotterdam (9pm CET) would be enough to reach second place in Group K in the UEFA Europa League round of 32 and win the European Cup for the first time in club history.
With that, the Norwegians would continue, Rapid needed a two-goal win to move up.
Speaking of the five-year qualification: Rapid Vienna’s head-to-head duel against Molde is still about promotion. The game started at 6:55 pm and is currently 1-0 for Molde.
From the Austrian point of view, a victory in the five-year rankings would also be important. In this, Austria currently ranks 10th, ahead of Ukraine, Scotland and Turkey.
So far, LASK has raised € 5,959,580 in this year’s European Cup season.
After all, there are 190,000 euros for a tie.
Also from a financial point of view, a profit would be a good advantage. UEFA pays € 570,000 for a victory in the group stage.
Although LASK has no chance of promotion today, the Linzers will undoubtedly give their all to say goodbye to the European Cup season with a win.
Hello and welcome to the last day of the Europa League. Today we report live on the duel between Ludogorez Rasgrad and LASK. There are still two hours until the game begins.
