With 29 defeats Rapid is the new record loser in the Europa League, the green-whites are researching the causes.
It was actually a good fight, but in the end it was another defeat. After the 0: 1 against Genk, it was 0: 2 for the Hütteldorfer at West Ham. The Rapid players know what it is currently.
Defender Kevin Wimmer criticizes his offensive fiercely: “We have had a couple of very good switching situations, something would have been possible. But if the last pass fails because of the sharpness or precision, it won't work.”
Rapid fans riot in London
Above all, striker Ercan Kara is in an absolute form low, currently looks like a foreign body in the rapid attack. Taxi Fountas also seems headstrong, Christoph Knasmüllner has no ideas.
The former England legionnaire looked frustrated: “We tried everything. Our goal was to keep the ball well. Unfortunately, the last pressure was missing towards the front. The performance was quite okay, but in the end West Ham showed us how It works. Not much has changed on the island, the physical presence is great, but we countered it quite well. It's very annoying, it was too easy for her. “
Marco Grüll almost got a penalty, but it was taken back by the VAR: “The penalty is a 50:50 situation, I already felt contact, but until then I believed he would give it.”
“We can't hide with our performance. You don't have to dominate a game like this. We actually played pretty good football. In the end we took a lot of risk at 0: 1, then we didn't end up switching situations so well played “, the Rapidler continued.
