Self-confidence boosted for Slavia with a test match win
With a 3-1 win in the test against RB Leipzig, the Wolves showed that they are ready for the Champions League duel against Slavia next Thursday.
Cold! It was bitterly cold on Saturday during the friendly test against Leipzig in Linz. However, the she-wolves of the spusu SKN defied the cold and won the first game of the year 3-1. After Leipzig took the lead, Sarah Mattner turned the game around with a brace before Valentina Mädl made her comeback to make it 3-1. “An intense game from both sides. “I’m glad that we were able to test against such a robust opponent before the duel against Slavia,” said coach Liese Brancao.
Since the beginning of January, the Wolves have been working on correcting the mistakes made in previous games in the Champions League group phase. This is also the case on Sunday and Monday in the last two units before we go to the Czech Republic on Tuesday. The trainer is pleased with the performances of the returnees Valentina Mädl and Lainie Fuchs. “It was primarily important for both of them to collect playing minutes,” says Brancao. Things will get serious next Thursday, January 18th. Then the Wolves will meet Slavia Prague in the Champions League group phase in Mladá Boleslav from 6:45 p.m. and want to take away three important points in the fight for third place in the group.
