Goalkeeper Problems Hit Grazer AK and FC Luzern

Grazer AK (GAK) suffered a 0‑3 defeat to LASK in the Austrian season opener, prompting harsh criticism from captain Daniel Maderner and coach Ferdinand Feldhofer. The club singled out goalkeeper Cican Stankovic, saying the performance was "far too little" and that the team must improve to earn points.

In Switzerland, FC Luzern's newly signed goalkeeper Simon Simoni endured a disastrous debut against Thun, conceding a goal after a handling error. Coach Udo Portmann defended Simoni, noting the mistake was typical in football and promising continued support, while backup Raphael Radtke was mentioned as a potential alternative.
