Kara convinces Fountas to score the first goal of the season

However, one goal or the other could have been added, but Rapid was unable to extend his lead in both the first and second half.
“After the 1-0 win it was important that we come back immediately. Unfortunately, then we lost it, that’s the only thing I can say we could have done better, to score the third goal. So I think we would do it the game was in a completely different direction, then it would have become easier, “said Kühbauer.
Kühbauer: “Well deserved labor victory”
“We were close to 3-1 a few times, but we didn’t take our chances. That’s the team to blame. We had to shake to the end,” said the Rapid coach. his team.
Especially Ercan Kara, but also Taxiarchis Fountas have left a multitude of possibilities. Kühbauer tries to get something out of the line of fire after the game. “Taxi wants to score goals. That’s a good story. But I think it might be better if he sees one or two teammates. I’m still happy to have him.”
St. Pölten, in particular, made sure it stayed tight until the very end as it sold dearly against the Hütteldorfer. “We knew that St. Pölten was in a very good mood, they showed it today. However, I think it was well-deserved work. Without work, nothing works,” said Kühbauer.

In both the first and second half there were phases in the St. Pölten game where Rapid dominated, but you couldn’t reward yourself with a goal.
