Father's son duo: The football dreams of the Grünsteidls come true!

In an exciting news for the Austrian American Football, the European League of Football (Elf) draws attention to itself! The Vienna Vikings have announced a special deal: 41-year-old veteran Florian Grünsteidl and his son Max, a talented rookie, will compete for the team next season. This marks a remarkable family moment that Florian would not have thought possible when he started his career at the Vikings, as OE24 . Max earned his place in the team with impressive performance in the AFL and in the U20 national team, where he recently won World Cup bronze.

The history of the Grünsteidls is not only a personal success story, but also a premiere in the ranks of the Vikings that have already set up other father-son teams. While Florian plays Lineman as a defensive, his son Max is also active in this position. The Vikings are known to integrate players from their own talent smiths into the professional team, and coach Chris Calaycay emphasizes that Max is given the necessary support in order to develop after a worrying knee injury. The two look forward to standing on the field together next year and have high expectations of the coming season in which they are aiming for the title, the Vikings showed themselves optimistic after a last year without title.

In the United States, on the other hand, the NFL team Minnesota Vikings had to bend a bitter defeat against the Los Angeles Rams. The game ended with 27: 9 for the Rams, which is a bitter disappointment for the Vikings. Despite the talent in the team, the Vikings failed to play their strengths. According to Yahoo Sports this was another setback in one season that does not go according to plan.
