SK Rapid starts the UEFA Conference League with a 2-1 win at Basaksehir FK.
Louis Schaub single-handedly leads the Hütteldorfers to the first three points at international level with a brace (43/46) at the Fatih Terim Stadium in Istanbul.
For Rapid it is the 11th win in the 17th competitive game. The next opponent in the Conference League is the Armenian club FC Noah on October 24 in Vienna.
A controversial outside goal from Burgstaller
Rapid are relying on the starting line that won a 1-1 home match against LASK in the league on Saturday. The only thing new is the coach leading the sidelines. Assistant coach Stefan Kulovits replaces head coach Robert Klauß, who was suspended for one game after playing the EL final against Braga, and is shouting in the stands.
Basaksehir started the game better and hit the crossbar in the 5th minute.
As a result, Mear takes more control. In the 13th minute, the ball plays into the Turkish goal, but Guido Burgstaller’s goal is disallowed for an alleged offside position – a very thin decision.
Rapid remained the team in control of the game and rewarded themselves in the 43rd minute: Louis Schaub was not pressured on the edge of the penalty area, moved into the center and circled the ball perfectly into the far corner with his left. A great hit.
Hütteldorfer’s celebration was short-lived, however, in injury time of the first half, Basaksehir equalized through Krzysztof Piatek, who prevailed in the header duel against Lukas Grgic (45th + 2).
As the first half ends, so does the second: Schaub perfectly finishes a beautiful combination from Hütteldorfer to make it 2-1 (47th).
In the 72nd minute, Rapid celebrates again, but Dijon Beljo’s goal is disallowed because Matthias Seidl’s assist is offside.
