1:5 – Sensitive setback in Altach

After the Sunday match the quarter finals of the ÖFB Samsung Cup were drawn under the ORF broadcast. FK Austria Wien meets FC Admira Wacker Mödling at home on the 4^th/5^th of April.

For the top game against SCR Altach Thorsten Fink changed his starting line-up at some positions. Thomas Salamon began in place of Christoph Martschinko on the left in the back four, Ismael Tajouri-Shradi was able to play against his former club from the start and Felipe Pires had to stay on the bench. Larry Kayode remained with a bruised toe in Vienna, Kevin Friesenbichler took the striker position.

SCR Altach is still unbeaten at home this season and Benedikt Zech made his comeback in the central defence. Ngwat-Mahop and Dovedan started in place of Salomon and Oberlin.

A tired FK Austria Wien against an unleashed SCR Altach

The starting phase was characterized by the home team, already in minute 4 Dovedan slammed a free-kick against the bar. Osman Hadzikic parried a shot by Jäger (5.) as well as a finish of Dovedan after a strong solo of the U21 team player (9.). A little later our keeper was powerless: a cross from Schreiner landed with Ngamaleu who scored and brought SCR Altach in the lead (12.).

The “Violets”, until then without successful offensive action, were having a hard time finding in the game after the tough match in the UEFA Europa League against AS Roma. Hadzikic prevented another goal after a shot from Schreiner (24.). The first shot on target by FK Austria Wien was recorded after 33 minutes but the finish of Jens Stryger Larsen went far by the goal.

Towards the end of the first half Altach was once again pushing. A header by Netzer after a free-kick by Lienhart was parried by Hadzikic (40.) but against another header by Dovedan after a cross from Zech our keeper had no chance - 2:0 after 42 minutes.

With a shot from Ngamaleu (44.) the first half came to an end, not a real scoring chance for FK Austria Wien was recorded.

An afternoon to forget

Thorsten Fink responded after the break, with Felipe Pires and Christoph Martschinko for Tajouri-Shradi and Salamon he brought fresh forces to the pitch but this did not change the course of the game. Hadzikic prevented an own goal from Lukas Rotpuller (46.), Ngamaleu tripped alone in front of Hadzikic and gave away a big chance (52.). Shortly after, Rotpuller saved against Ngamaleu (53.). The second half began as the first had ended.

Alexander Grünwald had a chance with a header after a cross from Friesenbichler but could not use it. On the other hand, Altach was playing strong, a powerful shot by Dovedan hit Hadzikic on the bar and from there it bounced behind the line - 3:0 (64.).

To make matters worse, Lienhart walked through the “Violets” defence in minute 76 and increased the score to 4:0. After a free-kick and a cross from Venuto Petar Filipovic reduced to 4:1 (88.). Hadzikic saved in minute 89 against Oberlin before the striker scored during stoppage time (90 + 1).
