Salzburg League problem child Bramberg surprised in the relegation battle in Grödig with full success also spoiled Obmann's home coaching debut

The 20th round summarized: Nothing new at the front, everyone scored at the back apart from Anif (0:2 on Friday in Seekirchen), Straßwalchen and Golling. The only real surprise on Saturday was Bramberg's first win in 2024 - 3:0 in Grödig. The team from Flachgau extended their negative run in the new year. In addition to the absentees Lukacevic and Fraunhuber, ex-professional Krainz was injured early on with a pulled muscle and Popovic also had to come off early. Bramberg legionnaire Cunta took advantage of this to score his first brace in the league, while young Wangler sealed the deal after the break.

Lead over the relegation zone extended
"An extremely important win for us," said sporting director Werner Walser jubilantly. The absent chairman Martin Innerhofer, who got married in a civil ceremony, was also delighted: "The perfect present for me!" This means that the first relegation candidate Anif is already six points behind.

Golling, who lost 2-0 to Siezenheim on the debut of interim coach Sanel Moric after a Breitenthaler brace, are just as far ahead. "They disrupted our game plan early on. But there were a lot of positives and we want to build on that," said the new coach with optimism.

Champions kept "runners-up" at bay
The duel between the champions and runners-up ended the same way as in the previous year's table: Thalgau beat Bürmoos 1-0 thanks to Wintersteller's precious roller and a red card for O'Connor. Meanwhile, Eugendorf's form continued to improve after the (too high) 3-0 win against Straßwalchen.
