Coach Christian Heinle’s reaction after SV Guntamatic Ried’s 1-0 win against newly promoted Lustenau was a cry for help. “You can’t afford to defend like that in the Bundesliga.” He is waiting for additions to make his selection after the cruciate ligament rupture Nikola Stosic to expand – but before that there will probably be a farewell.
defender Milos Jovicic made it against Lustenau despite the absences of Matthew Gragger and Julian turi not even in the squad. The 27-year-old Serb is under discussion with second division club GAK. Nevertheless, the search for a central midfielder is a priority: on the one hand, because Turi could still get fit in the course of the month, on the other hand, because Heinle’s emergency plan worked out: for lack of alternatives, he hired the trained midfielder David Hungarian as a central defender, the 22-year-old impressed in his first Bundesliga games against Rapid (0:1) and Lustenau.
It is unclear how long it will take for Gragger’s comeback. The doctors are puzzled. The pain in the pubic bone flared up again and again in the 20-year-old.
