ÖFB Cup – First Round
LIVE: Sturm Graz Takes on SV Seekirchen
Last season’s runner-up, Sturm Graz, has also won its second competitive match of the new soccer season in convincing fashion!
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Even without several key starters who were rested, the Graz side prevailed 3-0 (1-0) over third-division club SV Seekirchen in the first round of the ÖFB Cup. The goals were scored by Simon Seidl (39'), Ryan Fosso (49'), and Szymon Wlodarczyk (85').
Sturm coach Fabio Ingolitsch followed through on his announcement and made significant lineup changes three days after the 4-0 victory in the opening match of the Champions League qualifiers against Heart of Midlothian. There were nine changes to the starting lineup; only goalkeeper Daniil Chudjakow and new signing Seidl in central attacking midfield started again.
Seidl scores his first goal in a Sturm jersey
Seekirchen kept the game close in the early going, but the favorites took the lead shortly before halftime: After a quickly taken free kick by Fosso in midfield, Gizo Mamageishvili played a ball deep into the box. Seidl made a run into the box and, after a well-timed run, scored his first goal in a Sturm jersey.
Shortly after the break, a cross from Belmin Beganovic found Fosso. The Cameroonian, who had led the Graz team onto the field as captain, kept his cool and extended the lead to 2–0. Wlodarczyk put the finishing touch on the game in the closing minutes. The substitute striker scored after a mistake by Seekirchen in their build-up play and a pass from Arjan Malic.
