Red Bull Salzburg is back on the road to success. After four consecutive competitive matches without a win, the Bundesliga leaders celebrated an 8-2 win at SKN St. Pölten at the start of the ninth round on Saturday and increased their lead over LASK and Rapid to five points for at least one day. . The “bulls” also soared with enthusiasm for an away appearance at Moscow’s Lok on Tuesday in the Champions League, in which the first victory was claimed in the fifth match.
The series champions made it all clear in the first 25 minutes following Bayern Munich’s recent 3-1 in the ‘premier class’ with alarming fury at the NV Arena, when Mergim Berisha (7th) scored two Dominik penalties Szoboszlai (13, 25) and a goal from Karim Adeyemi (22) already 0: 4. After the break, Hungarian Szoboszlai (52nd) perfected his triple pack and “Joker” Sekou Koita (70th, 86th, 89th) achieved a impeccable triplet. The forward of the Mali team gave himself many gifts on the occasion of his 21st birthday and now has 10 goals this season. The only result of the three games in Lower Austria without victory were goals by Dor Hugi (33rd) and Alexander Schmidt (60th).
Thanks to Berisha, Salzburg made a bespoke start, the German U21 player scoring from 15 meters after Adeyemi, who was ideally groomed by Luka Susic, crossed. In the 11th minute, Christoph Riegler was the first to avoid a double from Berisha, and when Szoboszlai fired, midfielder Robert Ljubicic fended off a goalie-style parade for his defeated goalkeeper. To the surprise of many, the referee Manuel Schüttengruber only showed him the yellow card. Szoboszlai reached his goal and took advantage of the penalty.
At 0: 3, Adeyemi received a wide pass over the defense from Zlatko Junuzovic, lowered the leather and lifted Riegler with soul. Less than three minutes later, the ball sank back into the net and back into the same corner with a renewed penalty from Szoboszlai. Ljubicic had fouled Adeyemi and was once again lucky not to have been excluded.
St. Pölten was served, but changed very well once. After a nice diagonal pass from Kofi Schulz, Israeli Hugi scored his sixth goal of the season. Immediately after the restart, the former three-goal lead from the guests was recovered, thanks to the active help of the home team. A failed return pass from Blauensteiner became the ideal template for Adeyemi, who ran towards the goal and selflessly crossed Szoboszlai, who had no trouble shooting into the empty goal.
In the 60th minute, Schmidt, a former Salzburg player, could still hope for partial success, cut to 2: 5 after a cross from Schulz from a very close distance. After that, it got really bitter for the locals, thanks to “Joker” Koita. The 21-year-old fooled the Lower Austrian defense and finished off the action with the outer instep. His second trick was successful after Adeyemi spearheaded the preparatory work before finally landing his flawless hat trick with his left hand. After 1: 1 in Rapid and 1: 3 against Sturm Graz, they won again in the league. And they achieved the highest victory of the season immediately.
