Admira is known for its good youth work.
At a top-class youth tournament in Madrid, the people from the south of the city were once again able to show off their quality in youth football. Lower Austria’s U14s came 13th out of 24 at the international tournament, which included the youth teams of Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Arsenal FC and Paris Saint-Germain.
Narrow defeat against Real Madrid
In the group stage of the two-day tournament, the young “Panthers” narrowly lost 1-0 to Real Madrid, and they also lost games against Brommapojkarna from Sweden (0-3) and England’s Charlton Athletic FC (1-2). . Admira managed to win 2:2 against Crossfire Washington from the USA and a clear 4:1 victory against Marienlyst from Denmark.
In the subsequent placement games for ranks 13 to 16, Djurgaarden from Sweden was defeated 1-0 and St. Joseps Boys from Ireland 3-2 after penalties and thus ranked 13th.
Selfie with Luis Suarez
“It’s a top international tournament that we’ve been participating in for a number of years. You can be very happy with 13th place with top teams like Atletico Madrid (tournament winner), Real Madrid, Barcelona, PSG, Arsenal, FC Porto, etc We also saw the La Liga game Atletico Madrid against Real Madrid (1:2) live in the stadium!”, coach Roman Krejcirik is happy about an all-round successful trip to Madrid.
As the icing on the cake, the Lower Austrian boys also met ex-Barcelona star Luis Suarez on their flight home and were allowed to take a selfie with the Uruguayan.
