After the 1: 5 against HCB South Tyrol, the mood was depressed in the KAC. With the 1: 4 against Salzburg and yesterday’s defeat, the KAC had two clear defeats against direct competitors.
As the “Kleine Zeitung” reported, the analysis after the game was sobering. Raphael Herburger summed up the emotional situation: “The South Tyroleans delivered a perfect away game, didn’t let anything burn in the back. Nothing was present from us.”
Problems against the top teams
So far, the red jackets have no way to compete with the top teams of the league. While hits are still able to go against weaker opponents, the favorites lack both punch and efficiency. “We hit the weaker teams. We don’t find the best to score gates or score points. This is frustrating,” Herburg told the “Kleine Zeitung”.
Doubts about energy and occurrence
In addition to playful deficits, mental aspects are also discussed. Definent David Maier criticized the lack of belief in my own danger: “I never had the feeling that we could somehow be dangerous. Now we all have to question what is happening here.” Herburger also saw a need for action: “We come in front of the goal. But the top teams know how to keep us away. We have to start here.”
Sobering balance
