In the first leg of the UEFA Europa League play-off, FK Austria Wien hosted a sold-out Viola Park Fenerbahçe Istanbul SK. In a game with few chances, it was an early goal from Joshua King and a late goal from Serdar Dursun that gave the visitors from Turkey a deserved 2-0 away win. The starting position for the second leg in Istanbul is very difficult for the violets after the first leg defeat.
Early deficit, stop before the break
The game started in the sold-out Viola Park with pyrotechnics in the away block. The guests from Turkey were responsible for the first sporting highlight: In the eighth minute of the game, Fenerbahçe switched quickly after winning the ball, Diego Rossi served Joshua King – coming from the left he pushed past Christian Früchtl to make it 0:1. Ezgjan Alioski almost gave the guests their next good chance: Früchtl intercepted the ball after Billy Koumetio had lost out in a running duel.
As the game progressed, it was mostly a bit hectic, Fenerbahçe tried fast balls deep, Austria didn’t really get into the game. Haris Tabaković had the first really good approach to goal (he came on for the injured Florian Wustinger) – but his header clearly missed the target (35′). At the other end, the Turks found the next good opportunity after a bad pass by Austria in the center circle, but Serdar Dursun only hit the side netting after work from İsmail Yüksek (41′).
Fenerbahçe keeper Altay Bayındır was hit by a cup from the east stand just before half-time – the goalkeeper was able to continue, but the atmosphere was additionally heated after this action. After a short break we continued.
Later second hit to decide
The Violets had to make a second change at half-time, Muharem Huskovic stayed in the dressing room due to injury, and was replaced by Aleksandar Jukic. Fenerbahçe also dominated the game in the second half, Austria couldn’t get through the compact defense of the guests for a long time. A deflected long-range shot by Aleksandar Jukic (77th) was the most dangerous thing that Austria put on the pitch.
But Fenerbahçe did not do much offensively in the second half either, the game mainly took place in midfield. The Turks let the Austria run – and the clock ran for the guests. In the final phase, Lucas Galvão also saw the yellow-red card for repeated foul play (83rd). After red in the game against WSG Tirol, it was the defender’s second exclusion in a short time.
Just before the end, Fenerbahçe made everything clear with the 0:2. Rossi shot in the penalty area, Koumetio blocked the shot. Serdar Dursun then made it 2-0 (89 ‘). In a game with few chances, Fenerbahçe Istanbul were able to achieve a well-deserved 2-0 away win thanks to efficiency in attack. The starting position for the play-off second leg in Turkey is therefore very difficult for Austria Wien.
