With a clear focus on defense, Damir Canadi leads SCR Altach to victory at Wolfsberg on his return. An important achievement in the fight against relegation.
With Damir Canadi, success has also returned to Altach. At Wolfsberg, the 50-year-old coach led the Vorarlbergers to a 1-0 victory on his return to the SCR coaches bench on Sunday with a strengthened defense and raised new hopes that the mission would stick. Canada was allowed to attach the famous coach effect to its flags. Only the fourth win of the season meant that his team passed the red lantern to Admira.
The Canadi brand was clearly visible on his troops, who were now two points ahead of those in Lower Austria. “The key to success was definitely the defense. The goal was definitely to play zero,” said the Vorarlberg resident, who had already worked successfully at Altach from 2013 to 2016 and, among other things, celebrated promotion to the Bundesliga.
Altach in relegation battle: “The team has the potential”
“We tried to organize the team. We were very stable, we didn’t allow much,” said Canadi, who had meanwhile accepted commitments to Rapid, Atromitos Athens and 1. FC Nürnberg. The compact defensive performance made it difficult for a less lively and creative WAC. “It’s difficult to create opportunities against a deep opponent,” complained WAC coach Ferdinand Feldhofer. “Altach wasn’t too bad for a back six either.”
“From the looks of it, you can talk about a coach effect,” said Altach goalkeeper Martin Kobras, who captured the victory with two strong saves, on “Sky.” The relegation, in whose success the club’s leaders under Canadi’s predecessor Alex Pastoor apparently no longer believed, has regained new momentum. The next test of endurance is, of course, imminent: LASK will arrive in Altach on Saturday. Canadi: “The team has the potential, success comes with self-confidence. We definitely still have room for improvement. We can build on our stable defensive behavior.”
