When Austrian striker Muharem Huskovic was in a serious accident Wednesday night on the south-east motorway (A3) near Pottendorf (district of Baden), the car in which the kicker was a passenger burst into flames.
According to police, the car driven by a 21-year-old crashed into the back of a truck with full force. According to the Bundesliga club, Huskovic was hospitalized in the intensive care unit of the Baden State Clinic. There is no danger to life. According to “Ö3” he suffered “among other things a concussion and a rupture of the cruciate ligament”. Austria coach Manfred Schmid has now confirmed this diagnosis (all information HERE >>>).
The car of the 21-year-old from Mattersburg collided with the truck around 8.15pm. The faulty heavy vehicle was towed by another truck in the first lane of the A3 at a speed of between 45 and 50 km / h using a pole, the Lower Austrian state police reported in a transmission.
The force of the impact “immediately burst into flames,” the car said. Road users later rescued the two seriously injured by the burning car and kept the fire under control.
While Huskovic was taken to the Baden state hospital, the driver was transported to the Eisenstadt hospital. A dog who was also in the car died.
The A3 Vienna lane was closed in the crash area for about an hour. A backwater formed several kilometers long. Austria on Wednesday evening asked for the privacy of the player and his family to be respected and not to speculate.
