Vienna drops points for the first time this season
By: Conner Munist, Forta Evening News
There’s a new super team in town, putting the pressure on Vienna. The question was how would Vienna respond? They faced a tough opponent, FU League Cup winners Lisboa who had a great transfer window. Vienna went with their 4-3-3, although dropping the wingers back when defending, and Lisboa stuck to the Christmas Tree formation.
It was a scrappy game with very little chances. The biggest chance came in the 65th minute, when King Hart delivers a beautiful cross into Rahman. Rahman, alone in front of the goal, heads it onto the post. Eventually, the game ended 0-0 meaning Vienna dropped points for the first time in the league. Many will say they missed Finglebottom, but with a comfortable clean sheet, that is not the case for now. That 7 point lead dropped to 5 points, but drawing to a rejuvenated Lisboa is a decent result, the Vienna squad shouldn’t be panicking, especially with the window not over yet.
Man of the Match
King Hart, came on and changed a stale game. Was also robbed of a clear assist.
Flop of the Match
Could have been many players, however, I’ve selected Yilmaz. Lisboa had many promising counter-attacks but were all carelessly ruined by the Turkish attacker.
