Stripfing run riot against Kapfenberg
3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Stripfing cannot stop winning
6 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Successful dribbles: 20. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

A masterclass from Andreas Kuen
Marked 8.36 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Words at Stripfing training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dejan Lazaro is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
