"A derby doesn't always have to be pretty, it's the result that counts," was how Isabella Jaron summed it up after her Altach side's 2:1 win over SPG Lustenau/Dornbirn. But first things first!

As in the first duel of the season, the promoted team from Messestadt took a 1:0 lead. It was ex-SCRA player Jana Sachs, of all people, who was only half-heartedly tackled by the Rheindörfler defence and slotted past the rushing Sarah-Lisa Dübel to make it 1:0. A lead that was deserved for a long time. Even when Maria Olsen - after Dornbirn goalkeeper Fanny Söderström had fouled Mia Bertsch - shot a penalty so imprecisely that the Finnish goalkeeper was able to save it (42').

The turning point with Jaron
After the break, however, Altach showed a different face and increasingly took control. The final turning point came with Isabella Jaron, who coach Bernhard had put on the bench for the first time after recovering from a knee injury and brought on in the 68th minute. Just six minutes later, defender Sabrina Horvat first outpaced four Dornbirn players with a spectacular solo run, crossed and Jaron - who had arrived from German second division side Meppen in the winter - scored on the slide to equalize. "She's a striker who stands where she needs to be," said Summer, paying tribute to the 22-year-old, who then also provided the assist for Altach's winning goal through Rieke Tietz in the 86th minute.

Back in second place
As a result, the Rheindörflerinnen regained second place in the table from Vienna - the Viennese side have to play at Wacker Innsbruck today.
