Villa striker Weimann frustrated over Austria omission

Aston Villa striker Andreas Weimann is determined to win a recall to the Austria squad.

Weimann has vowed to win his Austria place back after being axed for the first time in two years.

He said: "I am only on standby. I would have liked to go but the manager has tried to change it. I've been called up for the last two years every time but he just wanted to change it so I've got to keep going.

"He called me and said he thought for this game - we are playing Sweden - another player would be better suited. I've got to accept it and keep playing well here."
