The former Austria youth international Andreas Schicker will be making a comeback this Friday with his new second division team SC Wiener Neustadt against LASK Linz.

The 29-year-old is now back in action after he was involved in a fireworks accident and lost his left hand in 2014.

Fortunately, he had successful surgery and he now has a prosthetic hand. 

Coach Gunther Kreissi told Austrian newspaper 'Kurier' that he is "convinced" that his opponents won't notice his "handicap".
