Great autumn – young people research as a recipe for success

The young bulls overwinter in second place after a strong autumn. Aufhauser-Crew has been undefeated in 13 games and has only lost one game. In the Youth League there is a “final” against Sevilla

We quickly found our way in the league and exceeded all expectations, ”said coach Rene Aufhauser, summing up the autumn season. As for many players who were pulled up from the U18, it is also the Styrian’s first season in Liefering. The numbers in the first half of the season are impressive, he holds with an average of 2.13. In 16 league games, the young bulls left the field as a loser only once (1: 2 against Austria Lustenau), and they have been unbeaten in 13 games. After falling behind, Havel and Co. got twelve points – and all that with an average age of 18.5 years. This ends the autumn season in second place, only three points behind Leader Lustenau. The championship is within reach. The coach knows the recipe for success: “We have the right team spirit, everyone is important.” Best proof: 29 players were deployed. The long-running favorite of the Aufhauser crew is Nene, who was in the starting XI in all 16 games in autumn. With eight goals and seven assists, he is also an internal top scorer. Aufhauser sees potential for improvement in efficiency: “We have to do more with our dominance.” One game is waiting for Aufhauser and Co. before the winter break: in the Youth League against Seville for promotion.
