Vorarlberg’s advantage over pursuers FAC dwindled to two points three laps before the end of the season. The people of Linz are also involved in the title race on Friday: they are guests at the FAC. “We want to be fair to all teams and win every game. Both Lustenau and FAC deserve promotion,” said Blau-Weiss Linz coach Gerald Scheiblehner.
He’s already setting the pace for the title race next season. “It was a very good performance, my team achieved a lot,” he said after the 1-1 draw. Paul Mensah was another kicker in the attacking three-man series: 17 of the 24 goals in the spring season were scored by attacking players. “Compared to autumn, we’ve made a step forward in striker goals.”
Nevertheless, the people of Linz want to improve in the front area: In the most recent Bundesliga game of LASK against Tyrol, blue and white sports director Tino Wawra was spotted in the Tivoli stadium – before that he had met Wacker’s Ronivaldo in Innsbruck. The OÖN had already reported in mid-February on the Linzers’ interest in the 33-year-old Brazilian. Scheiblehner: “We have a team that is very young. A man with experience would be good up front. He would fit in well with our style of play, knows the league and can score goals.” (rawa)
