The players of Rapid Vienna were left out of the application. Austria’s head coach Ralf Rangnick has decided on his squad for the March friendly matches, the official website of the Austrian Football Federation reports.
The application did not include three Rapid players involved in homophobic chants after the Vienna derby against Austria at the best soccer betting sites. We are talking about goalkeeper Niklas Hedl, as well as strikers Marco Grüll and Guido Burgstaller.
“This is something that I will not tolerate in a team where I am a coach, whether it is at a club or here in the national team. In this case, I expect the guys to take this issue seriously and understand what it means to people when they are publicly insulted or discriminated against in this way,” The Guardian quoted Rangnick as saying.
Last week, the Austrian Bundesliga disqualified two more Rapid players for the same chants. They were ordered to attend seminars on discrimination.
