Salzburg draws Parma. Ouch. Having ousted Udinese, the Austrians face another Serie A team. First game will be away, second leg will be on the artificial turf in Salzburg.
Beat the ham out of them! Ham-mer them. Anymore witty remarks? Just beat another Serie A team. Go Salzburg!
Well, looks like the first leg was in Austria. Played in Linz rather than in Salzburg. Fortunately for Salzburg, only 7,000 witnessed this debacle: Salzburg 0 - 4 Parma Stick a fork in 'em. The last Austrian team in Europe is bowing out.
Just for the record, Salzburg was pounded in the return leg as well. Parma won at home 5-0 to advance 9-0 on aggregate. To cap a terrible European showing by the Austrian clubs, Salzburg suffered the worst defeat in this UEFA Cup round by far. Fortunately, they seem to have turned around their Bundesliga results lately...
