With video: Kuchl cracked! In the sixth attempt again a threesome
After five failed attempts, some of them grandiose, it worked again in the sixth game in the recent past with an away win in Kuchl. As usual, he was the last one there, like back then it was 2-0, the special thing about it is the “waiting time” of a whopping 4,900 days.
Only since last Sunday has the Kuchler sports field been officially named after Andreas Wimmer, the former mayor of the market town and long-time SVK official, whose serious illness in 2018, during his tenure, took his life far too early. In the first regional league game in what is now the Andreas Wimmer Arena, we should be the deserved winners and also the lucky ones.
Gradually purple overweight
A brisk and emphatically fair regional league game is set up immediately at a quite respectable level. Intense duels and little time for the ball carrier to think, this quality feature was evident in the first few moves of the match. What was missing were the big goal scenes, but most of it took place between the penalty areas and the back teams were concentrated.
As the first half progressed, the playfully better Austria also achieved a certain increase in chances. And once it worked: In the 40th minute, Joey Zottl shines in front of the goal with a great ball assertion and processing – body used perfectly, skilfully turned and dry inserted to take the lead.
Trembling, afraid – well gone!
With the well-deserved 1:0 we went into the cabins and then into a fast-paced second half. The very clear goal scenes were a little rarer than before the change of sides, the tension naturally increased the closer it got to the end. Danger flared up a few times from the cuddlers – enough at least to let everyone hold their breath for a moment who was holding on to Austria.
But what the “Teufel” had offered that afternoon wasn’t really accurate and that’s how it came to Kuchl’s first deserved away win since April 2009. Marco Hödl was even able to finish it off in the 93rd minute to the same result as back then after a Kuchler stumbled over the ball during the last attempt to build up and our team played the situation well to the end.
For the babies mentioned in the opening credits, who were born around our last away win in Kuchl, it is now at least eighth grade knowledge of what such a win feels like. They will take that with them before they leave secondary school soon. Just as hopefully we will soon open a new chapter with the cross-state regional league.
we would at least have to repeat this year’s material – and bend Kuchl away again!
Because it’s so beautiful: side glances
Finally, since this round is already the start of the second half of the season and our closest competitors are slowly becoming apparent, for the first time this season a few selected looks at the results of these other games on the 12th matchday:
- SV Wals-Gruenau – SK Bischofshofen 1-0
- FC Pinzgau Saalfelden – SAK 1:1
Have a nice week everyone, see you again on Wednesday at the state cup game in St. Martin (7 p.m.) or delayed on Saturday from 4 p.m. in Maxglan for the home game against St. Johann!
