Austrian football shock: Salzburg is subject to Wals-Grünau 0: 1!
Dornbirn, Österreich - in the Regionalliga West, a setback for Austria Salzburg was set up on May 29, 2025. The club had to give up 0-1 against Wals-Grünau. The decisive goal fell through the penalty of Petrit Nika in the 67th minute after Marinko Sorda had previously touched the ball. This loss was particularly bitter, since Austria Salzburg could have expanded the lead over the direct pursuer Imst to six points. Now, however, he shrank to just three points, as Imst was successful on Wednesday and thus sat down strongly on the heels of Austria Salzburg.
In the course of the game, Wals-Grünau had several occasions in the first half, including a header that brushed the outer post, as well as a shot that went to the latte. Austria goalkeeper Manuel Kalman was able to prevent his team from falling behind before the sides. After the change, however, a different picture showed; Austria Salzburg seemed unsettled and was rarely able to impress. In the last ten minutes they intensified the pressure, but remained without a goal. The game ended 1-0 for Wals-Grünau, which thus improved to sixth place in the table.difficult starting point for Austria Salzburg

The team will meet Dornbirn next Saturday, while Wals-Grünau will compete against Kuchl on Sunday.
With this result, the challenge for Austria Salzburg becomes the main element of the remaining games. The newly created competition for the ascent increases the drama and increases the pressure on the players. It remains to be seen how the team will beat in the upcoming games.| Details | |
