Steirertor
A Steirertor is in the parlance of Austrian football a goal as a result of an unfortunate goalkeeper error.
A well-known story tells: "When Rudolf Hiden let a long-lasting shot pass by an opponent who was no longer known by name in his first game for Vienna AC in 1927, his front man and defender Karl Sesta etched visibly excited:" Such a Türl can only get a Styrian “(German:“ Only a Styrian can get such a goal ”)“ The authenticity of this incident is considered dubious, the origin of the word itself is not known.
