Bundesliga in the TICKER – LIVE: Austria Lustenau against SK Rapid

“Full power” at Rapid
“This is a very important game for us. We know what situation we are in,” emphasized Zoran Barisic, the coach of the eighth-placed team. “We’re going there with the mindset that we definitely want to win.” We have to put the Derby disappointment behind us. “It is important not to lose faith in yourself and to remain confident,” explained Barisic. The Viennese promised that it would not fail because of willpower. “I expect us to be at full power, with great energy. We want to force our opponents to make mistakes and gradually improve our playfulness. But we have to work for that first – I don’t assume that we will immediately dominate in terms of play.” Rapid’s season tally of eleven points so far is not satisfactory for Barisic. “But basically we knew that it was a tough year, that we were going through a period of change and that we had a lot of new players,” emphasized the coach.
