WSG Tirol and Ried separate 1:1 in the relegation battle

WSG Tirol and SV Ried missed the hoped-for liberation in the relegation battle of the Bundesliga. With a 1:1 (1:1) the superior WSG missed early relegation on Friday and remained in the fifth league game in a row without a “triple”. Even in the seventh of ten games in the qualifying group, the Innviertler were not allowed to celebrate a win. It was the fifth draw in a row for coach Maximilian Senft’s team.

Ried thus retained the “Red Lantern”; Altach, who now have the same number of points, can do better on Saturday against Hartberg. The Tyroleans of WSG coach Thomas Silberberger have three games before the end of the season six points ahead of the bottom of the table.

The Upper Austrians got off to a flying start at Innsbruck’s Tivoli, with striker Seifedin Chabbi scoring the lead after just 43 seconds. Julius Ertlthaler (37′) equalized before the half-time whistle with a wonderful shot into the far post. In a turbulent stoppage time, the supposed winner of Rieder Tin Plavotic (93rd) was withdrawn due to an offside position according to the video images, after which Roko Jurisic (98th) saw the red card off the field.

Captain Marcel Ziegl returned to the starting XI for the first time since last September. Silberberger changed his team in five positions compared to the 0:5 swatter in Hartberg, three of them in the defensive back four. However, the changes didn’t take effect in the early moments of the game. Because Dominik Stumberger misjudged a Beganovic cross and Chabbi thanked him with his fourth goal of the season in the league.

The Senft-Elf defended high and then put the hosts under pressure early on. It took almost a quarter of an hour before the WSG became dangerous for the first time with a low shot by Justin Forst. Ried goalie Samuel Sahin-Radlinger ducked in time and saved (14′). Just like a little later with a free kick from Bror Blume (23rd) from the edge of the penalty area and a long-range shot by Valentino Müller (24th).

The Tyroleans had significantly more possession and scored the deserved equaliser: Ertlthaler flicked the ball from the left edge of the penalty area to score his second goal of the season right into the far corner, a possible handball by Blume happened a few games earlier and was therefore no longer relevant. Twelve seconds after the break, Rieder almost struck again. WSG defender Raffael Behounek let Christoph Lang trick the ball, which put it on Belmin Beganovic, whose shot Behounek blocked at the last moment.

On the other side, Thomas Sabitzer missed the lead after a wide cross (53′). Just like Müller, who failed after almost an hour after a counterattack only completely free-standing against the strong Sahin-Radlinger (59th) and shortly afterwards slammed a long-range shot into the post (65th). The Silberberger-Elf pressed vehemently for the lead, but lacked the necessary nerves of steel in front of the goal. In the 87th minute, Matthias Gragger missed the match ball for Rieder after a long free kick before things got turbulent in injury time.
