We come at last to the final team of the league, FK Austria Wien out of the Austrian Bundisliga, also known as Die Veilchen "The Violets". (Does that make two "violets" and two "reds" in the league?)
Austria Wien make the sexy stadium of "Horr Stadion" their home base.
The team was founded in 1911 and had it's most successful run between 1975 and 1986 when they won 8 national titles. While their performance since than has been mostly unexceptional, there have been bright spots (including a quarter-finals appearance in the 2005 UEFA cup).
Some notable players include: young scoring sensation Rubin Okotie and defensive midfielder Joachim Standfest.
Here's some highlights set to the themes from Magnum PI and Dallas

ReplyDeleteThose guys look like absolutely rooks compared to your English boys.
Perhaps they're fare better on the mini pitch!
Die Veilchen uber alles!
