Herbert Jerich gave the Vienna Capitals a “motivational injection” in case of a victory over the KAC at the end of the regular season. Now this is a case for the Law Commission.
Today’s “Kronen Zeitung” reports on a strange thing. Graz99er’s boss Herbert Jerich was in contact with a player from the Vienna Capitals and is said to have offered him and his entire team dinner if the Caps defeated the KAC on the last match day of the regular season and thus kept the Graz team’s chance of winning the regular season.
The Caps won 3:2 after extra time, the Graz team won 3:1 in the parallel game in Linz and took the basic round crown. Jerich then wanted to pay off his debt, as the “Krone” reports. But “the whole thing was meant to be funny. But it never came to that, nothing happened,” says the entrepreneur, who also emphasizes that no one was asked to lose, just to win.
The case lies with the Rules Commission
The league doesn’t find it so funny: “We heard this incident and immediately reported it to the legal commission,” said manager Christian Feichtinger. It will now be checked whether this is a violation of the rules.
Meanwhile, the Graz team is waiting for their semi-final opponent, who will be called either Laibach or Fehervar, provided the Hungarians prevail against the KAC. Without knowing who you were competing against, you started pre-sales for the two fixed semi-final duels yesterday and were sold out in a record time of three minutes.
