Austrian champions LASK made it back-to-back Champions League wins as they thrashed bottom side Slovan Bratislava.

Wing-back Kasper Jorgensen headed in from a corner to put the hosts in front after 19 minutes and doubled the lead with a free-kick whipped into the bottom corner in the 37th.

The third came from another set-piece just before half-time as Robert Ljubicic stabbed in from close range after Slovan failed to deal with a corner.

LASK completed the scoring early in the second half as captain Sascha Horvath played in Samuel Adeniran down the left channel and the American rifled a left-foot shot high into the net from a tight angle.

The home side had the chance to add to their lead in Linz but after two defeats to begin their inaugural Champions League campaign, including shipping six at home to Liverpool, LASK have now backed up a famous win at Sporting with a second, extremely comprehensive victory.

But while the Austrians will now be eyeing a top 24 finish and a play-off spot, Yaya Toure's Slovan remain rooted to the foot of the table and have conceded 17 goals in losing their first four games.
