Before the match, which took place without a spectator due to the measures to contain the coronavirus pandemic, there had been a minute of mourning in memory of the victims of the terrorist attack in Vienna. Then the Tyrolese managed despite the yellow-red against Zan Rogelj (59th) after two losses and a draw the first win in direct comparison. With eight points they are now at the level of Vienna of Austria, St. Pölten is fourth with two more points.
With the hosts, coach Robert Ibertsberger had to reschedule in a short time after rapid coronavirus tests two hours before the start and a total of three failures. Lukas Grozurek took the place of Alexander Schmidt on the offense, of which hardly anything was seen until dismissal, except for a weak finish by Robert Ljubicic (23rd).
Successful Tirol near St. Pölten
WSG Tirol celebrates a narrow 1-0 win at St. Pölten. The gold scorer for the Tyrolese was Florian Rieder in the 31st minute.
Riegler’s first goal
The WSG did well on defense and initially set the tone with a quick-change game. Zlatko Dedic seized the first opportunity to supposedly lead, but Rogelj, standing in front of SKN goalkeeper Christoph Riegler, intervened in the game (14th).
The guests took the well-deserved lead in the 31st minute. After a cross from Fabian Koch, Rieder carefully passed the ball over Riegler. The 24-year-old, who was rewarded by WSG coach Thomas Silberberger for his performance in training with the season’s first starting lineup, scored his first goal in the Bundesliga.
Rogelj referred the field
The Tyrolese then missed the easily possible 2-0. There were chances through Dedic (35th, 49th), who missed against Riegler, Petsos, who volleyed over the goal with reserve (44th), David Gugganig (47th / head ball) and Kelvin Yeboah (49th), whose shot was still blocked by Daniel Drescher.
After an hour, the game after the yellow-red for Rogelj (both foul play) took a new turn. WSG coach Silberberger was also relegated to the stands after criticism. St. Pölten started to attack, but couldn’t break through the Tyrolean defense with two huge four backs. Kofi Schulz missed with the best chance against WSG goalkeeper Ferdinand Oswald (78th).
Voices for the game:
Robert Ibertsberger (SKN coach): “There was one chance or another, but it wasn’t enough to get at least one point. Wattens did better for this one goal alone. You have to congratulate the WSG. We have to keep working hard, we knew that not everything would be so easy. We tried everything, but something lacked that lightness. “
Thomas silberberger (WSG coach): “A well deserved away win. We finally reward ourselves today. Until we were excluded, we were clearly the best team, but we couldn’t extend our lead. With exclusion, St. Pölten was oppressive. But even with ten men we defended heroically and actually only allowed a great opportunity, and we left a great opportunity to fight back ourselves. “
Florian rieder (WSG scorer): “I am very grateful and proud to have scored the first Bundesliga goal today and that we are going to score three points. The time has come and I am very happy that it happened today. “
