Points dropped
WAC against Red Bull Salzburg from 14.30 LIVE
Red Bull Salzburg did not find a way out of the crisis in Wolfsberg either: The former serial champions had to settle for a 0-0 draw at WAC in the Bundesliga on Sunday, despite being outnumbered.
The Red Bulls were unable to capitalize on the exclusion of WAC striker Markus Pink (51st) and remain in fifth place behind the Carinthians.
Coach Pepijn Lijnders made six changes to his starting eleven compared to the 2-0 defeat against Dinamo Zagreb. Salzburg had more possession against WAC, who played a wait-and-see 3-4-2-1 system, but did not know what to do with it in the first half.
The Bulls had little pace in the game, few ideas in attack and often made life difficult for themselves with imprecise build-up play. The result: not a single Salzburg shot on goal in the first half, only two long-range shots from Stefan Bajcetic (20') and Nene (22') brought at least a little danger. The WAC tried their luck from a consistent defense and had a few promising chances in front of goal, but the Carinthians did not find a real big chance either.
Pink sees red
The match changed in the 51st minute. After a foul on Lucas Gourna-Douath, referee Christian-Petru Ciochirca immediately showed the red card and sent Pink to the dressing room. In the final half hour, the action moved almost exclusively into Wolfsburg's half, but they defended cleverly and conceded very little. Karim Konate (85) and Adam Daghin (87) missed Salzburg's match points.
After eight recent defeats in league duels with Salzburg, Didi Kühbauer's side earned a point against the Red Bull team for the first time since 20 December 2020.
