Head coach’s team Ivan Zivko welcomes the Styrian Bears at an unusual time on Saturday at 6 p.m. The division team’s game against the Styrian Panthers, which would have taken place in advance, was canceled for technical reasons.
The Styrian Bears come to Simmering as a promoted team and so far without a win. In week three, the team had to change from Head Coach Martin Kocianwith whom Coach Zivko has already fought many battles, face the Swarco Raiders Tirol and showed a strong performance despite the defeat.
„With the Styrian Bears, we have a newcomer who played well in the last game.”know also Ivan Zivko rank the performance of the Bears.
In addition, Zivko is looking forward to the matchup between two Austrian quarterbacks.
Because with Bastian Steinmeier and Nico Hrouda we will see the first purely Austrian playmaker duel on Saturday. “I think it’s a big thing for football that we have teams that rely on Austrian quarterbacks. And I’m very excited to see how both will perform.” Zivko hopes for an exciting encounter.
It will be very important for the Vikings to use their home strength again. The team has been unbeaten at the Ravelin since November 2021 and head coach Zivko knows: “For us it is very important to offer the best performance that we can at home. We’ve done well there so far.” Like last week, the Vikings will field many young players on Saturday due to various absences. Against Graz and against the Danube Dragons, the team has already proven that it can play very good football with young Austrian players. They also want to show that against the opponent from Styria on Saturday. “We will try to offer our fans a great show” promises Coach Zivko, who adds that he’s really looking forward to Saturday’s game.
Import Running Back Lamar Carswell suffered a severe muscular thigh injury in the game against the Danube Dragons. This makes it impossible for him to come back to the field again in the current season and therefore unfortunately means the season is over for the running back.
