League dominator Salzburg is undoubtedly in a crisis. In the last three games, the Mozartstadt team missed almost everything. The master is hardly recognizable. This also puts coach Gerhard Struber in trouble. “Afterplay Time” – a column by “Krone” editor Christoph Nister.
Helpless!Powerless!No chance!It was shocking how Salzburg presented itself in the 1:3 defeat in the Raiffeisen Arena in Linz against LASK.No fight!No resistance!No passion!Where has the matter-of-factness gone in the Bulls game? For many years, the people of Mozartstadt were always there when it mattered. There is no trace of it anymore! Salzburg had three big goals before the season. European Cup in the spring! A goal conceded in stoppage time against Benfica prevented the European winter. For the first time in the group phase there was only fourth place! Recapturing the Cup Nothing came of the revenge against Sturm – it was a 3:4 defeat! Eleventh title en suiteAnd now that too! Sturm can draw level on points tomorrow with a win in Hartberg. The championship title is in danger! Which is why head coach Gerhard Struber is wobbling. “I don’t have those thoughts,” he explained when asked by “Krone”. “Even if it’s painful right now, I’m confident that we’ll turn things around in a different direction.” Do bosses Stephan Reiter and Bernhard Seonbuchner also see it that way?
