The first goal in the new Linz stadium is already legendary and will remain so. Host LASK defeated Austria from Lustenau 1-0 on Friday evening in the Raiffeisen Arena, which was filled with just 12,000 spectators (that’s another story). Marin Ljubicic scored a penalty in the fourth minute of added time. The legendary thing wasn’t the elegance of the execution, but the creation: There has hardly been a more ridiculous penalty kick in the varied history of the domestic soccer league, at least not since the introduction of the VAR, the video referee.
