The dress rehearsal is already a first highlight of the season for LASK: Today, Europa League winner Eintracht Frankfurt is testing with ex-LASK trainer Oliver Glasner in the Paschinger Raiffeisen Arena (3 p.m.) the form of the Bundesliga soccer club before the first emergency in the coming Saturday in the Cup in Schwaz.
“We look forward to being able to measure ourselves against an opponent of this magnitude,” said LASK trainer Dietmar Kühbauer. “Eintracht is a different caliber in terms of football.” In contrast to his opponent Glasner, who will probably change his eleven completely at half-time, LASK will already switch to competitive game mode. For Frankfurt, on the other hand, it is the first test against a professional team after the warm-up exercises against Nieder-Weisel (14-0) and Aschaffenburg (1-0). He kicks off the training camp in Windischgarsten, where the Hessians are guests for the fourth time after 2012, 2015 and 2019.
A celebration for the fans
“A test match against the Europa League winner is a nice story,” said Kühbauer. This doesn’t just apply to his team today: Part of the net proceeds are donated to the “Herzkinder Österreich”. After the game, the squad will be presented, and the fans will receive free beer in the form of vouchers. Remaining tickets for the kick-off are available at the cash desks.
Philipp Wiesinger will not only remain in the spectator role during today’s dress rehearsal. The 28-year-old centre-back has yet to start team training following an ankle operation in April – and there’s no telling when. At Matias Succar the contract dissolved. He returns to Peru.
Defeat at dress rehearsal
There is still a lot to do at SV Guntamatic Ried after yesterday’s 2:4 (1:2) at the “season kickoff” in the Ried Josko Arena in front of 800 spectators against Ujpest Budapest. Against the Hungarians, the lack of speed in the offensive was obvious. Here, the Innviertler also want to be active on the transfer market.
Defensively you weren’t solid either. Wießmeier (after Monschein template) and Nutz from long range scored for the Innviertler. Before that, the Innviertler “B-Elf” lost 1-0 to second division SV Horn, despite the support of Seifedin Chabbi up front. (like/tst)
