Slavia defeated LASK Linz 4:1 in the opening game of the 1/16 Conference Finals.The score could have been even higher. The team is in a comfortable position going into the rematch, but it is not yet decided.
The Slavs’ great streak of six wins in a row was broken only at the weekend by Liberec, who beat the Sechivans 1:0 on a shaky pitch. However, Slavia has certainly put the league defeat behind them and all thoughts are now directed to St. Pölten, where they will play a rematch with LASK Linz.
Yira Sor reigns supreme in European duels. He has made three appearances in the starting line-up, with four goals and one assist. He scored twice against Fenerbahce and twice against LASK. He is very comfortable with opponents who push their defence very high, the Nigerian speedster has a lot of space to make his own breakaways.
That’s exactly what happened in the first game. Sor scored in the first half and could have added 2 more. He could have added to his tally in the second half, but he didn’t.
Instead, LASK reduced the score to 1:2 after a mistake by Olayinka, but Slavia’s captain redeemed himself with a goal to make it 3:1, which was followed up by Traoré. Slavia thus took a comfortable three-goal lead to Austria, which they should easily hold.
Especially with LASK’s style of play. He will have to take risks from the beginning of the game and open up the defence, which will suit Slavia’s attacking players, especially Sora. So I expect a lot of goals to fall again.
