Cup winners LASK won in Kalsdorf and lost to newcomer Harakate

Twisted knee

It is not yet clear what injury the new signing will have Ramiz Harakate suffered in his first competitive game for LASK, but the pictures of his twisted knee don’t bode well.

The striker, who only moved from GAK to the new Austrian football capital in the summer, watched the second 45 minutes with crutches on the outside line after this equally painful and unfortunate action.

The Linzers had a hard time in Kalsdorf for a long time and were even lucky not to fall behind. With the 1-0 by defender Andrade (39th), the spell was broken and the second 45 minutes became an exhibition.

Nikolas Veratschnigwho moved from Mainz to Salzburg in the summer, entered the shooting list – the full-back was already the team’s most dangerous player in the friendly matches. With the NO (4-0 in Donaufeld), another Bundesliga team confidently moved into the next round.

In the Innsbruck derby between second division newcomers Wacker and local rivals Reichenau, the favorite won 3-0.
