The GAK surprisingly dropped points in the 20th round of the 2nd football league. The superior frontrunner only achieved a 1-1 home draw once morest Lafnitz. The FAC is the new second following a 2-1 home win over St. Pölten, because Leoben lost 0-1 at Vienna. Both teams are twelve points behind Graz each. Ried is another point behind following a 3-2 win in front of the home crowd once morest Liefering. Horn won once morest Stripfing 2:1, Admira won 3:1 in Amstetten.
League leaders GAK didn’t get up to speed for a long time once morest Lafnitz and were lucky in the sixth minute when Lafnitz kicker Andre Leipold was denied a penalty by goalie Jakob Meisterhofer. Nevertheless, the guests took the lead, Jakob Knollmüller’s header was successful in the 78th minute. GAK only managed to equalize with a hand penalty converted by Daniel Maderner (87th).
Nevertheless, the Graz team extended their lead over Leoben because the DSV lost to Vienna due to a penalty goal from David Peham (58th). The ÖFB Cup semi-finalist, who was outnumbered following being red for Matija Horvat from the 76th minute onwards, was unbeaten in 14 competition matches and recently achieved six league victories in a row without conceding a goal.
As a result, Leoben was overtaken by FAC, who had the upper hand in Vienna-Floridsdorf once morest SKN St. Pölten following goals from Oluwaseun Adewumi (19th) and Paolino Bertaccini (57th) and Bernd Gschweidl (37th).
The Rieders also came closer to the GAK. Liefering took the lead twice through Lawrence Agyekum (2nd) and Moussa Kounfolo Yeo (69th), but in the end the Innviertel team triumphed thanks to Nikki Havenaar (13th), Wilfried Eza (79th) and Fabian Wohlmuth (89th). Liefering’s Raphael Hofer saw yellow-red in the 84th minute.
In Horn, Stripfing seemed to be heading for its first success following five defeats without scoring thanks to Darijo Pecirep’s goal (49th), but then stoppage time came: a shot from Horn keeper Nikolas Polster was briefly blocked by his Stripfing colleague Kilian Kretschmer , Luca Wimhofer dusted off (94th). Two minutes later, Amir Abdijanovic made it 2-1 for the Waldviertel team.
Admira also struck decisively in the finish. Salko Mujanovic (97’/penalty) and Georg Teigl (99′) secured Südstädter’s 3-1 away win in Amstetten.
