Before the final round of the Europa League, two Austrian football clubs still have a chance to advance to the knockout rounds, WAC and Rapid. Lask look for a 3: 3 at home against Tottenham Hotspur, however, eliminated in the group stage.
From the Linzer point of view, this game fell into the “Here’s how it works” category. That is, when there is an effectiveness machine on the other side, as the teams of coach José Mourinho tend to be. Because it was a great performance by the Linzers against the current leaders of the English Premier League. And a 3: 3 is nothing either.
Especially in the first half, Lask was the busiest team, even better. Johannes Eggestein hit the crossbar early on, and goalkeeper Joe Hart was busy after that too. To guide the hosts, Peter Michorl fired a long-range shot after a counterattack (42.), this goal was preceded by an accident by Tottenham player Matt Doherty, who slipped and pulled his knuckles unhindered.
Bale and Alli shoot from the penalty spot
That luck is a bird was revealed shortly before the break, when Andrés Andrade fired a shot from close range in the penalty area. The penalty was, at least according to the last change in the rule of hands, indisputable, but the action was unfortunate because the shot was from close range. Gareth Bale stepped forward and scored 1: 1.
Also in the second half, the Lask were brave, but erratic in a crucial scene. Midfielder Mads Emil Madsen was unable to stop a sharp pass well, possession of the ball drifted to Tottenham, and that fast. A pass, a sprint and a shot from Heung-min Son later made it 2-1. Then Tottenham constricted as usual, but Lask came to equalize through Eggestein after a mistake, look here, the Tottenham defense.
A minute later, the referee whistled for a penalty again, this time after a race duel with light contact. Dele Alli certainly converted (86th), but Tottenham also failed to take the second lead over time. It was France’s Mamoudou Karamoko, who slipped 3: 3 into the corner from the edge of the penalty area.
Wolfsberg is just one point away from the climb
But WAC is on the rise after a deserved 1-0 victory at CSKA Moscow. Dario Vizinger decided the match in the Russian capital with the goal of his dreams from 25 meters (22). It was the second win for coach Ferdinand Feldhofer’s team after a brilliant 4-1 win at Feyenoord Rotterdam.
Wolfsberg now has seven points, Feyenoord two less, as the Dutch lost 2-0 at home to Dinamo Zagreb in a parallel game. This means that the Croatian champions are the first Group K winners, and the WAC are already satisfied with a draw next Thursday at home against Feyenoord for the first time in the round of 16 of the round of 32.
Quick against Arsenal without a chance
Rapid Vienna’s appearance in London was of secondary importance in the matter of promotion. Even before the match it was clear that the last match in Vienna would be the direct final with Molde, who clearly beat Dundalk 3-0. Rapid needs a win against the Norwegians next Thursday. There was nothing for Rapid against Arsenal, so coach Didi Kühbauer decided to spare numerous regular players, Richard Strebinger returned to act in goal. In the end, Rapid was still quite well served at 1: 4. The game was also a better test for the English, who were already group winners.
