Austria-Klagenfurt celebrates a 2-1 home win against WSG Tirol, with the fifth red card in the sixth game.
After a 97-minute hail break, it was still possible to kick in the Wörtherseestadion, and Austria presented the 3,600 fans with a 2-1 victory. Referee Josef Spurny allowed seven minutes to replay, which annoyed coach Peter Pacult.
“I think we played a half longer with the stoppage times than everyone else. Seven minutes was a nice piece. I don't know where that came from,” said Pacult at Sky Sport Austria.
The fifth exclusion in the sixth game left Pacult indifferent this time: “We are the climbers, we have to work hard for every point. It was an absolute work victory, we showed a correct reaction after the 0-1. We also did after the exclusion fought us with hands and feet. “
Wacker Innsbruck holds the previous red record from 2013, when there were eight exclusions.
Goalscorer Patrick Greil annoyed a referee's decision, in the event of a foul his duel opponent Thanos Petsos should have seen red: “We got exactly this red against Admira, Petsos is a casual guy, but actually he has to go down.”
“We fought to the end, with one man less we were pecked in the back, basically it was all right. We are now playing better with one man less anyway. Maybe we should practice that during the week,” Greil continued.
