Koita hits brace, Ashimeru scores as Red Bull Salzburg beat FK Austria Wien

Sekou Koita got a brace while Majeed Ashimeru found the net once in Red Bull Salzburg’s 4-1 thrashing of FK Austria Wien in Saturday’s Austrian Bundesliga fixture.

Having gone a goal down at Red Bull Arena following Albert Vallci’s third minute own goal, Die Mozartstadter responded to maintain their imposing start this season.

Ghana international Ashimeru levelled scores in the 33rd minute, before Koita put his team ahead two minutes from that half-time break.

Masaya Okugawa made it 3-1 for Salzburg 10 minutes from restart before the Malian’s second strike of the encounter finished off the Violets.
