369.0. "How bad can you get ?" by ISIDRO::BREADIE () Fri Apr 22 1994 15:27

    Can any of you Austrians out there explain how a piss poor Scottish
    team with a crap manager and no tactics beat Austria 2-1 in Austria.
    
    Is your football that bad or was the result mistyped in the newspapers

369.5An answer from an AustrianVNOTSC::HERIBERTMon Apr 25 1994 08:5920
1. It has been a bad match - the victory of the Scotish team has been o.k.

2. Austria played very well the first 30 minutes (1:0), the "last "60" our
team seemed like a sleeping team.

3. Austria played as a 5th class team, the Scotish has been only one class 
better, this was enough.

4. Austrian coach Prohasha had to renounce of all 7 team players from the
UEFA Cup-finalist Austria Salzburg (Prepare of the final).
The best forward Anton Polster was hurt.

5. In the Austrian National-team there is not the same enthusiastic as in the
clubs, such as Salzburg.

6. With this performance Austria and Scotland has no chances in the
qualifications. (By the way our average National-team Under 21 defeats Scotland
2:1 one day before).

    RE -1  IN YOUR OPINION....
    
    The Scots wont qualify for the European championships.
    
    I disagree. I can see Scotland qualifying no problem.
    
    Ever hopeful 8^)  
    
    I would even disagree with your point having the Scots only one class
    above the Austrians. Granted both teams are not world beaters. I think
    that Scotland however, are maybe third class but can always cause an
    upset in major tournaments.

I have said, in this (!)match the Scotish has been only one class above
the Austrians (5th class), and with this performance both will have no chances
in qualifying.

I hope for both , that their performance will be better in the qualifying.
