Pascal Estrada gave the home team the lead in the 65th minute. The Upper Austrians moved up to seventh place in the Admiral Bundesliga table, Altach is penultimate on points with bottom team GAK.
In the first half, the 4,793 spectators in the Cashpoint Arena saw little to no highlights. There was a lot of fighting and cramping, the game was disjointed, there was only one real chance before the break: Entrup shot from a good position too centrally to Altach keeper Dejan Stojanovic (18th).
The misery continued in the second half before Altach struck. LASK goalie Jörg Siebenhandl was only able to deflect a cross from coach brother Sandro Ingolitsch briefly, Lukas Fadinger shot from the penalty area and his shot was decisively deflected by Estrada.
Guests with a strong finish
Only then did the LASK wake up. Florian Flecker was denied by Stojanovic (70th) and missed the target with a volley (74th). Stojanovic was also on the spot when Entrup volleyed (84′). In the final phase, Linz’s efforts were rewarded.
First, Entrup equalized after forcing his way through the Altach defense, then he was successful after preparatory work by Marin Ljubicic. Thanks to their first competitive win after two games, LASK remained unbeaten in their 14th league appearance in Altach.

**Interview with Sports Analyst, Jamie Collins on Recent Match Between Upper Austrians and Altach**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Jamie. Let’s dive right into the recent match where Pascal Estrada scored the decisive goal, leading the Upper Austrians to a 1-0 victory against Altach. What were your thoughts on the game overall?
**Jamie Collins:** Thanks for having me! The match was quite a battle, with much of the first half lacking real excitement. Both teams were engaged in a physical contest, and it seemed like they were trying to feel each other out rather than going for the win.
**Editor:** Absolutely, the first half was described as having little to no highlights. Do you think the tension in the match contributed to the lack of scoring opportunities?
**Jamie Collins:** Definitely. Both teams were perhaps too cautious, especially Altach, who are struggling at the bottom of the table. They had to be careful not to concede early, which led to a more defensive approach. It only became more aggressive after Estrada scored.
**Editor:** Speaking of Estrada, his goal in the 65th minute was crucial. How do you think this win positions the Upper Austrians going forward?
**Jamie Collins:** With this win, the Upper Austrians move up to seventh place in the Admiral Bundesliga. It’s a significant boost in confidence, as they now have the momentum to push for a higher spot in the table. Consistency will be key for them in the matches ahead.
**Editor:** Meanwhile, Altach remains in a tough spot, second from the bottom. What do you think they need to change to escape the relegation zone?
**Jamie Collins:** Altach needs to find a way to balance their defensive strategy with a more aggressive offensive play. They certainly have the talent, but they need to take more risks. A shift in mentality could help them convert close opportunities into goals and possibly climb out of that relegation zone.
**Editor:** Great insights, Jamie. Thank you for your time and analysis on what was a tense match for both sides.
**Jamie Collins:** Thank you! It was a pleasure discussing the game. Let’s hope for more thrilling matches ahead!
