Due to some corona cases at Sturm Graz, ÖFB team boss Irene Fuhrmann waived Katja Wienerroither, Annabel Schasching and Valentina Kröll against Finland as a precaution.
The Austrian women’s national team met on Monday afternoon for the second course of the year in Bad Tatzmannsdorf. Before the friendly international match against Finland on Sunday (8:30 p.m.) in Ritzing, team boss Irene Fuhrmann made a few changes. Anna Bereuter, Melanie Brunnthaler (both SKN St. Pölten), Lena Triendl, Lilli Purtscheller (both Wacker Innsbruck) and Julia Kofler (Werder Bremen) have joined the team.
The Sturm Graz actors Katja Wienerroither, Annabel Schasching and Valentina Kröll are not there. Due to several positive corona tests with the women of the SK Sturm, Fuhrmann wanted to play it safe.
“After careful consideration, we decided not to take any risks in this case. It remains a very challenging time,” said the team boss, who still has to do without the injured Viktoria Schnaderbeck, Verena Aschauer, Julia Hickelsberger-Füller and Viktoria Pinther . Offensive player Besijana Pireci (Austria Wien / Landhaus) also has to pass due to injury.
