Salzburg Festival in Cincinnati: the 2-1 against the Mexicans of Pachuca launches the Austrians at the head of the H group. A race-fiume, which lasted almost four hours, due to a very long stop (one hour and forty) at the beginning of the second half for a storm that forced to the evacuation of the public from the stands. A fun first half, with the Pachuca for a long time but in vain in search of the goal (Rondon Great protagonist), but who found the great performance of the young number one on his way to the debut of Salzburg, Zawieschitzky, protagonist of three decisive interventions before half an hour, in the game phase in which the Punta dei Mexicans had the best opportunities of the race. Then, however, just before the interval (42 ‘), a sudden restart of the Austrians led to the advantage of Salzburg with Gloukh, who with a right -handed one on Sulzbacher’s assist gave the Austrian advantage. Before, however, it had been the Pachuca absolute protagonist, dragged by Salomon Rondon, among the great protagonists of the Mexican championship.

After an initial occasion of Ratkov, the Rondon-Show began. A great diagonal on which Zawieschitzky managed to intervene, then repeating himself on Montiel. Salzburg with more qualities, but Pachuca much more concrete and effective, with a 4-2-3-1 which in the offensive phase was transformed into 4-5-1. The Austrians responded to Mexican pressure with Gloukh (27 ‘), but Moreno closed the door. Then, in 31 ‘, the best opportunity of the Mexicans, with the usual Rondon, who kicked still finding the number one of the Salzburg ready to raise on the crossbar. Danger foiled for the men of Letsch, still in difficulty on another lunge of Palavecino. Then, in 42 ‘, the Austrian restart with Nene led to the Sulbacher Assist for Gloukh, fake on Pedraza and an impossible conclusion for Moreno.

STOP

In the second half, good departure of the Austrians, but after nine minutes the referee interrupted the race for a sudden weather alert on Cincinnati, with black clouds on the TQL Stadium, which then led to a very violent storm. Spectators evacuated by the stands, then the restart after a hundred minutes stop. There the Pachuca found the same goal with a splendid punishment by Gonzalez. Immediate, however, the Austrian reaction, and the limits of the Lozano team emerged there. Thus, on a BidStrup lunge, onisiwo – which took over from Baidoo – he jumped very high by beating Moreno. Two to one final, and, now, Real Madrid is forced to chase.
