LASK 4-0 Slovan Bratislava: Kasper Jørgensen's brace leaves Slovan pointless after four

LASK beat Slovan Bratislava 4-0 at home on Champions League matchday 4, Kasper Jørgensen scoring twice before half-time and Robert Ljubicic and Samuel Adeniran adding further goals either side of the interval. The result leaves Slovan as the only one of the 36 league-phase clubs without a single point.

Jørgensen's double either side of Ljubicic

Jørgensen headed LASK in front in the 19th minute, converting a Moses Usor cross, then doubled it with a free-kick in the 37th. Robert Ljubicic made it three in first-half stoppage time, and Samuel Adeniran, assisted by Sascha Horvath, completed the scoring three minutes into the second half. LASK did not concede a single foul-based caution all night — Slovan's Cristian Martínez and Kevin Wimmer were the only two players booked, both before half-time.

Slovan's worst defensive record in the competition

It is Slovan's fourth defeat in four Champions League matches, following losses to Paris Saint-Germain, VfB Stuttgart and Roma. They have now conceded 17 goals in the league phase, the heaviest defensive record of any of the 36 clubs, and scored only once — they are the sole side still on zero points after four rounds.

Form the other way for LASK

LASK had opened with defeats to AEK Athens and Liverpool before a 3-2 away win at Sporting CP on matchday 3. This is a second straight win, and their heaviest margin of the campaign so far.
