LASK goalkeeper identifies Celtic concern despite perfect start to season

LASK goalkeeper Lukas Jungwirth has cautioned his team against replicating the errors that led to their latest Bundesliga win when facing Celtic. The Austrian champions began their title defense with two consecutive victories, including a 2-0 win over Austria Wien on Sunday. Ahead of the Champions League play-off against Celtic, LASK will host the first leg at Celtic Park followed by the return match in Austria.

While Jungwirth did not directly mention Celtic, he highlighted potential pitfalls in the upcoming match. He pointed out that LASK relied excessively on possession and were not prepared for Austria's counter-attacks, particularly around the offside goal. Additionally, he stressed the need for greater clinical finishing to avoid being punished by stronger opposition in future matches.

Despite the team's strong performance, Jungwirth emphasized satisfaction with the 2-0 victory, considering their status as favorites.
