Big step in the fight for Europe – 3:0 against Ried

In preparation for this game our Coach Thorsten Fink had to deal with three absentees in the back four. Christoph Martschinko injured, Jens Stryger Larsen and Petar Filipovic suspended - David de Paula and Thomas Salamon started on the outside positions, Lukas Rotpuller returned after his suspension into the internal defense. The offensive, with ten goals in the last four games remained unchanged.

After the 1-0 win against Admira, SV Ried had to do without the injured Dieter Elsneg, in his place Thomas Fröschl started. In addition, Marcel Ziegl replaced Stefan Nutz after his suspension.

Three times aluminum plus three goals

FK Austria Wien began furiously: already in the first minute, Ziegl had to face a yellow card after a foul against Felipe Pires, the Brazilian would have only had to pass to Larry Kayode. Raphael Holzhauser shot the resulting free-kick to Thomas Salamon, whose shot deflected Fröschl in front of the line (2'). This resulted in a corner, which Holzhauser crossed on Pires. Rotpuller extended our number 95’s shot, Möschl directed the ball to the bar (3'). A beautiful shot by Raphael Holzhauser with the outside of the boot landed on the bar (4'). Our game maker set up for Larry Kayode shortly afterwards with a great steep pass, the Nigerian passed to Alexander Grünwald, who again only met the bar - three times aluminum in the first ten minutes.

The “Violets” did not give up control even after this much bad luck. Again Felipe Pires could only be stopped with a foul, Raphael Holzhauser grabbed the ball and served Larry Kayode perfectly - this time the ball was in the goal, 1:0 for the “Violets” (16'). Because it was so beautiful, only five minutes later the same combination happened again. Holzhauser served for Kayode with the outside of the boot, who lifted over Thomas Gebauer in a remarkable way - 2:0 (21'). With his 16th goal of the season Kayode joined Deni Alar on the top of the scouring charts.

The home team did not let SV Ried come into the game. Tarkan Serbest narrowly missed a ball into the box from Grünwald (25'), Kayode shot over the goal (27'). Serbest took the opportunity of a bad defense, served himself with his chest and scored from about 20 meters – 3:0 (31').

Ried’s first chance was prevented by Salamon with a tackle, Osman Hadzikic saved a shot from Hart after the following corner (35'). Ismael Tajouri-Shradi tested Gebauer - saved (38'). The last chance of the first half had the guests, but Hadzikic was not threatened by a shot into the short corner by Möschl. FK Austria Wien went into half-time with a clear 3:0.

Austria brought the victory home confidently

Lassaad Chabbi made two changes, brought Özdemir and Walch for Antonitsch and Fröschl. Möschl opened the second half in his 100th league game with a long shot after a corner that narrowly missed the goal (46'). Alexander Grünwald answered with a free-kick from the edge of the penalty area, also barely missed the goal (50'). Two shots from Zulj missed the goal more clearly (60', 62').

The “Violets” controlled the game after the change of sides, but slowed down the game a bit. Felipe Pires came back with a shot in minute 68, Gebauer saved without any problems. Dominik Prokop came into the game for Tajouri-Shradi, before Pires could not overcome Gebauer again (77'). Larry Kayode made room for Kevin Friesenbichler, Marko Kvasina replaced Tarkan Serbest for the final minutes. Ademi hit the bar in the last minute, which was the last chance of the game. Thus FK Austria Wien are already six or seven points ahead of the pursuers before the Sunday duel Altach against Sturm.
