Austrian Bundesliga Match Kicks Off with Unusual Coin Toss Moment
In an unexpected twist before the match even began, the Austrian Bundesliga showcased a quirky incident this weekend. During the game between Red Bull Salzburg and WSG Tirol, both team captains met with the referee ahead of kickoff, a typical routine in football. However, following the coin toss, Salzburg’s captain seemed to overlook a customary high-five with his counterpart.
The nature of the oversight—whether it was a genuine forgetfulness or a deliberate omission—remains unclear. In a humorous turn of events, WSG Tirol’s captain, Lukas Hinterseer, promptly took it upon himself to remedy the situation. With quick thinking and a touch of humor, he opted to high-five himself, proving that sometimes, it’s best to make the most of an awkward moment.
Even before the first touch of the ball, the Austrian Bundesliga delivered a bizarre moment this weekend.
In the match between Red Bull Salzburg and WSG Tirol, the two captains met with the referee before kickoff. So far, so normal. But after the coin toss, Salzburg’s captain forgot to high-five his opposite number. You can see it here.
Whether he actually forgot about him or ignored him is unknown. Lukas Hinterseer’s reaction, however, was all the funnier. He didn’t hesitate for a second, took matters into his own hands (quite literally), and simply high-fived himself instead. That works too, of course.
