IMST. The Linz Bundesliga teams ultimately solved their compulsory tasks in the ÖFB Cup with confidence: LASK missed out on a better win in the 3-0 win in Imst, while Blau-Weiß Linz showed a lot of patience in the 2-0 win in Draßburg.
LASK stood in its own way for a long time, but Felix Luckeneder gave the athletes the lead in the 8th minute: He deflected a free kick from Sascha Horvath into the goal with his heel.
Coach Thomas Sageder gave goalkeeper Tobias Lawal, Andres Andrade and Robert Zulj breaks. During the game, the athletes alternated between “too complicated” and “too imprecise” given the many chances. But it was never a shaky game like last year, when LASK fought their way to 4-1 in extra time in Imst after trailing with ten men. The match was decided by substitute Thomas Goiginger’s converted penalty (71′), Leipzig loanee Sanoussy Ba added his first goal for LASK – 3-0 (85′).
