Christoph Baumgartner: Goal Offerings For Ralf Rangnick

JAKARTA - Christoph Baumgartner, an Austrian midfielder, was named Man of the Match in a dramatic match against Poland on Friday, June 21, at the Olympic Stadium, Berlin. Baumgartner performed brilliantly and scored an important goal that secured victory for his team, as well as ending five games without a win against Poland.

Baumgartner also became a hero for Austria by scoring a very important goal. UEFA's Technical Observer Panel praised his outstanding performance: "He scored with a very good finish, had good pressing and movement, played well with the ball, and was creative."

In two games played in this tournament, Baumgartner played for a total of 171 minutes, with an average of 85.5 minutes per game. He scored one goal with an average of 0.5 goals per game and had an accuracy of 86%.

The highest speed he has achieved is 31.7 km/hour with an average of 31.2 km/hour per match. During these two matches, Baumgartner has covered a distance of 20.71 km with an average of 10 km per match. He also received one yellow card, an average of 0.5 per match, and did not receive a red card.

Baumgartner expressed his happiness after the game presented three points for Poland including one goal.

"The coach spoke to me during the first half and gave a boost. We have a good relationship. I'm glad he's still with us. We're all under pressure and I want to show him my gratitude, that's why I celebrated the goal by going to him," Baumgartner said.

He also added that the coach had provided a strategy for the second half which allowed Austria to finally win this match.

"There is a danger that we will lose control of the game. We start to lose the ball too easily and you can't let that happen. But we all know we can trust each other. The coaches pushed us during the break in the first half and we gave everything on the pitch," he explained.

Baumgartner also admitted this match was pretty tight. "We started well, created a lot of pressure but then we let the momentum go. In the second half we knew we had to perform and one of the things we knew how to do was respond in such a situation that's why we got positive results."

Baumgartner's determination

Baumgartner also alluded to the previous win against Germany, "We won against Germany ahead of the tournament and had a very good period and people started to think big quickly, but we always had a reasonable view of our situation. We know how good we are. It would be a shame if we lost today," he said.

After the match, Baumgartner also celebrated that important victory. "Everyone is very happy. There is a lot of pressure on us and we really couldn't take a nap yesterday because we were so stressed. We were very relieved but we knew that this was just the beginning and a big challenge awaits us," he said.

With this victory, Austria still has a chance to advance to the knockout stages, keeping their hopes alive in Group D.
