Dragovic after red card: I damaged the team!

In the recent ÖFB Cup semi-final, Aleksandar Dragovic from Vienna Austria suffered a bitter setback. The experienced defender received a red card for unsportsmanlike conduct towards the referee, which resulted in a two-game ban and a further one on probation. The club has now lodged a protest against the decision laola1.at reported.

During a half-time break in a Bundesliga game against WAC, Dragovic commented on his sending off. He appeared remorseful and regretted his behavior, which had harmed both the team and himself. “I should have solved it better with my experience,” said Dragovic, already looking ahead to the upcoming derby against Rapid Vienna in a week.

Thoughtful reflection

Dragovic emphasized that he would not make such a mistake again. The central defender made it clear that he was suffering from his behavior and was having difficulty processing the situation. “I struggled with my behavior and was annoyed by it,” he said, while acknowledging his responsibility for the situation and apologizing to his team.

In the context of professional sports, color psychology plays an important role. According to a study on spiegel.de was published, the color red can both inspire and distract athletes. Red is not only reflected in the jersey, but also influences the behavior of the athletes. This insight could be important for Dragovic, as pressure situations in important games often lead to impulsive decisions.

With a clear focus on his mistakes and a willingness to work on them, Dragovic wants to use his experiences to emerge from the situation more successfully and further advance his sporting career.
