This week in the third division, we look at the season finale in the Regionalliga Ost. Rapid II are still at the top, having secured promotion after beating Mauerwerk 4:0. "Krone" editor Lukas Schneider has been following the young Rapid team's season closely: "The squad is fun, they are absolutely deserving promotion," he acknowledges the amateur team's performance. We also take a look at the regional leagues in the east of the country.

Union Mauer probably through, duel in Lower Austria
Union Mauer are top of the league in the Wiener Stadtliga, with eight goals conceded in 25 games, which also shows the team's stability. With an eight-point lead with five games remaining, they can more or less chill the champagne. In Lower Austria, Korneuburg could make the breakthrough if they can keep Gloggnitz at bay. Two points separate the two teams five matchdays before the end of the championship. In Burgenland, on the other hand, the decision has been made. SV Siegendorf will return to the regional league after a year away with a strong squad and will remain in the Ostliga for longer next season.
