Austria can be proud of its football exports. In every European club competition there is at least one red-white-red player in the final. In the champions it is David Alaba with Real Madrid against Liverpool (May 28), in the Europa League the coaches in the service of Eintracht Frankfurt, Oliver Glasner, Michael Angerschmid and Ronny Brunmayr, take on Glasgow Rangers. Defense chief Martin Hinteregger will unfortunately not be able to be active at the showdown in Seville (May 18) “because of a major muscle injury” (O-Ton Glasner).
Ex-LASK captain Gernot Trauner is currently in great shape and set. The player from Linz made it into the final of the new Europa Conference League with Feyenoord Rotterdam. The 30-year-old defender put in an impeccable performance in the 0-0 draw in Marseille (first leg 3-2) and narrowly missed his first competitive goal for the traditional Dutch club. “When you’re in a final, of course you want to win it,” said Trauner before the duel with AS Roma on May 25 in Tirana. “Of course we are the underdog.”
