The clear game-defining LASK, who has now been five league games without a win after their opening success, is only stuck in eighth place. The Linzers traveled to the Innviertel with the international sense of achievement, the entry into the group stage of the UEFA Europa Conference League. Dominik Thalhammer’s team dominated the game right from the start and had a great chance of taking the lead early on, but Keito Nakamura put a header from seven meters away from the goal (6th).
After Thomas Goiginger (7th) and Mamoudou Karamoko (15th) didn’t make it any better, Ried came dangerously into the LASK penalty area for the first time – and scored. Constantin Reiner scored after a corner kick with his head (17th). Ried then managed better to defuse the Linz efforts earlier, the rest was done by goalkeeper Samuel Sahin-Radlinger. In a counterattack, Seifedin Chabbi even missed the chance to make it 2-0 (41st).
Ried wins Upper Austria Derby
SV Ried won the Upper Austria derby against LASK 1-0. The Innviertler are surprisingly in third place after six rounds.
LASK cannot crack a defensive bulwark
In the second half, LASK almost only played on one goal, but for a long time without a brilliant idea how the Ried defensive bulwark could be cracked. In the end, however, the athletes were dangerous. A Hong header was blocked by Reiner on the line for the already beaten Sahin-Radlinger (77th), Karamoko shot over the goal (79th), Raguz also failed (84th, 87th). On the other hand, Marcel Ziegl missed the only chance in the second half (85th).
Thus, after only one goal in each of the previous five rounds, the Linz team remained without a goal for the first time this season. The Rieder managed hardly any more relief attacks, but celebrated their first Derby victory since promotion after two 3-0 defeats last season.
Voices for the game:
Andreas Heraf (Trainer Ried): “Winning is always nice, especially in front of your own audience and especially against LASK. The LASK has a brutal quality, but my boys did exactly what we had planned this week. We knew how LASK played, there are a thousand headers and a thousand tackles, we had to accept that. It’s sensational that the duel rate is so strong for us. We have to reach for the ceiling and focus on what we can. We defend well and are strong at standards. We make the most of our options. It doesn’t matter how it comes about, I can’t do anything for the optics. “
Dominik Thalhammer (Trainer LASK): “How can you lose a game like that? You can’t play more dominantly, you can’t create more opportunities. We have to credit it to ourselves, it’s absolutely incredible that we didn’t win. Ried is very good in the pits, but we had great situations from half-space and also 1-1 situations with Radlinger. We could have won all of the last ten or eleven games, but that’s subjunctive, we don’t get any of that. You also have to see the positive, we have good young players, we also develop more opportunities than last year, but we don’t use them. The knot has to burst once. “
