Scolding for the ÖSV team
Assinger bursts his collar: “Annoys me beyond measure!”
Clear words from Roland Assinger! After the disappointing Killington slalom on Sunday, the ÖSV head coach is out of his mind and harshly criticizes the red-white-red ladies.
The ÖSV skiers were unable to take advantage of the absence of injured slalom stars Mikaela Shiffrin and Petra Vlhova. Despite a good starting position (three women in the top 10), they fell back in the second run. Katharina Liensberger was once again the best Austrian in ninth place.
"When you're fifth, seventh and tenth after the first run, that's ideal for attacking. But unfortunately that didn't happen. It annoys me immensely that you don't go all out for the podium or attack. I really missed that from the ladies," grumbled Assinger in the ORF interview after the slalom.
"Talking into their conscience"
And is now putting a lot of pressure on the ÖSV ladies! "You have to talk them into it a bit. Because what counts is winning and not finishing tenth. The established skiers in particular need to do better, there's no question about that," demands Assinger.
