FC Red Bull Salzburg – TSV Prolactal Hartberg, 3:0 (1:0)
Referee: Andreas Heiß
Jesse Marsch (Trainer FC Red Bull Salzburg):
… After the game and winning the championship title: “This is very special for me. I have to say thank you to the whole club, the city, the fans. They welcomed my family and me with so much, according to the banner ‘No to March’, with so much warmth. I am very happy and very happy for the boys too. A great year for us. It was a strange season, with Corona and without spectators, there were many difficult things. We lost three good players in winter, but we pushed, learned, worked every day, which is why I was so successful. The feeling in the group. I understand the argument (Red Bull Salzburg has the biggest budget, note), we don’t have the topic in America that much, with the salary cap, we like that in America every team has a chance. It’s not the same in Europe, especially in football. You still have to do the job best, achieve the potential. In February it was very difficult for us, I talked to the team so much about learning, development, cohesion and in the end about mentality. Mentality means everything to me, we come every day and give everything. Football has so much more to do with mentality. It was the whole team that did everything. I have so much respect for the LASK, the players and the coach did everything well. It was so funny to me why they did it in the Corona period. Especially when all across the country have to stick together in our society. Our boys were incredible in the Corona period, did their homework so well. We were incredibly good in small group training. The players had so much focus and motivation. “
Zlatko Junuzovic (FC Red Bull Salzburg):
… After the game: “We hoped that it would happen today, but we had to win first, Hartberg did very well at the beginning. I am overjoyed that we are champions, a great feeling. The WAC did us a favor, but we also met our target. We have a season behind us that is indescribable, very special, it just feels good. The team and the club deserve it. We will tackle the next two games very professionally and we want to win. You learn the most in difficult times, this is exactly what phases young players need, sometimes you need these difficult phases for further development. During the Corona break, we grew as a team and developed further. “
Andre Ramalho (FC Red Bull Salzburg):
… After the game: “A really cool feeling. We have experienced a lot this season with the Corona break and many difficult games. Now the LASK can get all the points back. We showed again that we are the best team in Austria. Compliments to the team. I am very happy that I scored this goal. It was a bit complicated in the game, it was a tight game. We are always able to score goals, I am very happy that I am part of this team. What is here in Salzburg is extraordinary, this master mentality, this winner mentality. The team spirit, everyone wants to prove themselves, everyone keeps their fingers crossed for the others, who is not in place. Funny to celebrate without fans, but that’s part of the situation. ”
Maximilian Wöber (FC Red Bull Salzburg):
… After the game: “It feels very, very good. A great feeling. We made it difficult for ourselves, we had a lot of chances, on the whole we played down dusty, scored three goals and kept the zero behind. The first game against LASK, the win here at home and the two wins against Rapid were decisive, without which Rapid would be closer to us. The trainer was extremely hard on us, we had an extremely intensive home program, there was no day in group training when we weren’t about to eat. ”
Andreas Ulmer (FC Red Bull Salzburg):
… After the game: “A lot makes the title very special, there was a change in Salzburg in the summer, many have already said that it will be difficult to become a champion. It was difficult, the LASK fought well and the Corona break made it special. The start to Corona was crucial, we were hungry and looked from game to game. How we integrate players, the system, how we play, you have to take your hat off to everyone in the club. Jesse (march) has a very large share, he is always positive, always pushes us in the training sessions, always talks about mentality and he brought that into the team. ”
Markus Schopp (Trainer TSV Prolactal Hartberg):
… After the game: “Congratulations to Red Bull, they earned the title all season. A huge compliment to my team, we followed our match plan well, it also needs a good goalkeeper performance, Sallinger gave us tremendous support. We are in the fight for fifth place with the team, it would be dubious to give up on the subject (whether he could become a storm coach, note). We want to win the next two games. There is the possibility to take a career step or how to proceed with the TSV, what are the plans, where can I develop and where the TSV. I can’t say where that is yet. “
Marc Janko (Sky Expert):
… About Red Bull Salzburg: “A highly deserved champion, by far the best team. You played an excellent Champions League season and promoted Austrian football. Congratulations to Salzburg, they deserve it. They can be proud that they have turned a huge change into success. Jesse Marsch exudes positive energy, you can feel that in the interview, an extremely personable guy. He exemplifies the mentality like no other. “
… about the future of Markus Schopp: “I can also imagine Markus Schopp near Salzburg if Jesse Marsch should leave Salzburg.”
Andreas Herzog (Sky Expert):
… About Red Bull Salzburg: “Big compliment to the championship title. The young players are almost better than the ones who left. It is also important that you have older, also Austrian, players who are there to help and advise the boys, Ulmer and Junuzovic are one of the reasons why it works so well. ”
… About Jesse Marsch: “At the beginning of the year, as Marco Rose’s successor, it was certainly not easy for him, then Corona, they did a great job. He did a fantastic job with his team, compliments to the Salzburg team. The LASK has made a bit of a connection, everyone else is further away. ”
… About Markus Schopp: “The work of him and the performance of his team have spoken enough. With Hartberg, he caused the biggest surprises. “
… Whether Markus Schopp could become the new Sturm coach: “Any club in Austria would be well advised to think about Markus Schopp.”
