The Vikings had significantly more trouble on the third attempt in various phases than in the second game against the Graz team, which was due in part to the Giants’ new offense with QB. Anthony Gargner, but also partly due to idiosyncratic calls or no calls from the referees.
The game started exactly like the one in Vienna two weeks ago. Except for the start of the Grazers with their offense, which did not contribute points. Vikings first play: touchdown pass from Jadrian clark in Yannick Mayr from 59 yards to 7: 0. Even in the second series, the Grazers didn’t get a first try. On the other hand, the second series for the Vikings also ended with a touchdown. Florian wegan with a TD and Dennis Tadic with the PAT 14: 0 here. On the third drive, it works by the Grazer with points. The Giants with three receivers set up, including returnees Chris Gubisch, ran and Wenzel Rock reached the home team’s end zone. The extra point was blocked. The Giants’ PAT performance at that time was 40% (2 of 5).
Guest defense now came into play as well, forcing a fumble in the red zone on the fourth attempt of the Vikings offense. However, there was also that on the other side and that in the Giants half as head coach Martin Kocian a 4th and 1 on your own 25 played. That opened the door to the offensive of the Vikings. Wegan ran to the TD once more. It was in the middle of the second quarter 21: 6. A deflected punt gave the Vikings a strong field position and shortly after that. 27: 6 by Yannick Mayr. Tasic awarded the extra point. It was his first failure of 14 in the series. He continued in quick succession: Blake nelson returned Tasic’s kickoff to 27:13, Wenzel Rock used the PAT. The first half ended with a no-call when the Giants intercepted Andrews Spencer.

The giants stayed tuned
The second half got off to a promising start for the Giants, who were able to stop the Vikings’ first attack or thwart a field goal attempt. The stoppage was preceded by numerous penalties against the Vikings, including two holdings and an IPO. The Giants in attack immediately seize the opportunity to connect. Neo quarterback Anthony Gardner got up on the touchdown pass Florian Bierbaumer above the line of scrimmage. The referee team did not have their best day.
I have a better one Yannick Mayr, who once again extended the Viennese lead with his third touchdown. Tadic sold the PAT again. However, the guests grew stronger and stronger. A security of Blake nelson to the vikings playmakers Jadrian clark finished the third quarter in 33:22 and possession of the ball Graz.
After two touchdowns revoked by the Vikings on penalties, the third counted. Bernhard Seikovits, who previously collected flags, signed the goalscorer list. His touchdown at 40:22 He also presented the preliminary decision. In the end, Gardner showed her class again. Be careful Raphael Komeyli-Birjandi took care of that 40:29, which was answered and finished off again by Clark. His fifth touchdown pass in the game, a second time to Seikovits, made the final score for 46:29 (PAT Tadic is not good)
Overall the most exciting game of the three in the series, but winning the Vikings championship was never in doubt from the start. The Giants did their best, which deep down clearly wasn’t enough. The Vikings won their 15th national championship title in club history.
