Wattener WSG Tirol fails in the cup round of round against Salzburg

The WSG Tirol had to accept a bitter defeat in the round of 16 of the Uniqa ÖFB-Cup on Wednesday evening. Against the Bundesliga competitor Red Bull Salzburg, it set a clear 0: 3 defeat, which caused little cheering among the 2400 spectators in the stadium. The Tyroleans had made a lot, but did not turn out to be the surprise team that the fans had hoped for. Instead, the hosts took command and secured the move into the quarter -finals.

Already in the 35th minute the first decision was made in favor of Salzburg: Karim Konate converted a penalty after a foul was committed in the penalty area. Another strong goal scored Aleksa Terzic in the 53rd minute, who finally destroyed the hopes of the Wattener with a precise shot in the long Kreuzeck. Adam Daghim set the final point in the 83rd minute, which secured the clear final score of 3: 0.

consequences and upcoming challenges

With this result, the dream of the cup victory is dreamed of for the WSG Tyrol. Trainer Philipp Semlic knows about the difficulties that the coming weeks bring: "Now we have to concentrate fully on the relegation battle in the league." The first trend -setting game will take place on Sunday against FC Altach, where the team wants to score the necessary points so as not to slip in the league.

Salzburg, on the other hand, will meet the LASK in the quarter -finals, which was also able to assert itself in competition. Other favorites such as Sturm Graz and FK Austria Vienna also played into the quarter -finals with narrow victories, while some outsiders, such as SV Stripfing, provided great surprises by eliminating Rapid Vienna with 2: 1.

Both the WSG Tyrol and the supporters hope for the fastest possible turn in the league to balance the negative swing from the cup and to escape the descent. For more information on this topic, current reports on www.tt.com Appointment.
