WAC Back on the road to success: Strong appearance in Linz

The WAC wanted to go back to the road to success after a strong start to the season, which was now clouded by two home defeats. The entry into the game against Blau-Weiß Linz was promising. Already in the initial phase, the wolves showed an aggressive and determined game. After only seven minutes, Markus Pink had the first chance, but was unable to convince in one-on-one against the Linz goalkeeper Radek Vitek.

In the 24th minute, Chibuike Nwaiwu finally scored the important first goal of the game when he hit his head after a corner of Zukic. He not only demonstrated his own performance, but also helped the team to take the lead. Nwaiwu had settled in the central defense as a replacement for the injured captain Dominik Baumgartner and showed its versatility. From its first half, the WAC could have been able to go with a better point yield, but Pink did not extend a Jasic rebound, which prevented the possible 2: 0.

The second half: Linz takes over the control

After the break, however, the picture changed dramatically. Linz impressively followed up and took over the game control. The wolves hardly found their game and could hardly set any accents on the offensive. Nevertheless, the defense was well positioned and allowed little dangerous. Whether NWAIWU or goalkeeper Polster - both held by Linz several times. In an encounter that was characterized by tension and drama, a draw could have been the course of the game. It remains to be seen how the WAC will continue to assert itself in the upcoming games, after not a defeat in Linz, as www.kleinezeitung.at reports .
