They want to: Alberto Prada converted a penalty in the 32nd minute to equalize 1-1 against Sturm Graz II, so Joel Dombaxi didn’t take the time to celebrate the goal, preferring instead to get the ball out of the net for the middle goal. A win over the young Styrians, which meant three points and would have taken them out of the relegation zone of the second Bundesliga, didn’t work out again.
Forward lost the match again on the opposing sixteen. In the 79th minute, Günes fabricated a bad pass to a foreign shin in front of the guests’ penalty area, followed up, had bad luck with the ball and then threw his arms in the air, pissed off. In the meantime, Mohammed Fuseini had escaped the remaining defense and put the ball over goalkeeper Florian Eres to make it 1:2. The 1: 3 in the 90th minute, with which Christoph Lang closed the sack for the young blacks from Graz, was a copy. Another attack from Steyr got stuck at the edge of the penalty area, and the counterattack then closed like a mousetrap. Coach Daniel Madlener’s analysis might have sounded like perseverance and euphemism. Alone, she was right: “Despite everything, we were good in the game up to 1: 2. It’s just a little missing to finish a game consistently over 90 minutes.” In fact, only the Alzerl, the bissl, just a little bit of success is missing. Alem Pasic, for example, could have hit the ball a little better twice and would have become a goal threat. But Forward also had bad luck: Dragan Marceta, who came on for the injured defender Prada, had to leave the field injured himself 28 minutes later.
