2:1 win against WAC
LIVE from 14:30: Austria Klagenfurt vs. WAC
In the 3rd Carinthian soccer derby of the season, Austria Klagenfurt beat WAC for the first time!
Four days after the penalty thriller in the Cup, penalty kicks once again decided the match in the Bundesliga on Sunday. Ben Bobzien put the hosts 2:0 ahead with two penalties (12th, 22nd), Klagenfurt won 2:1 (2:0) and are now only just outside the top six. A dream goal from Sandro Altunashvili (70th) was not enough for the WAC.
On Wednesday, the WAC had had the better end after 20 penalties, but this time Austria benefited from the point thanks to Bobzien. After ten minutes, the VAR intervened after Chibuike Nwaiwu had received a shot from Christopher Wernitznig on the hand. Bobzien stepped up and shot into the middle, WAC goalkeeper Nikolas Polster got a hand to it but was unable to keep it out. Ten minutes later, the German on loan from FSV Mainz converted confidently after Simon Piesinger had fouled Nicolas Binder in the penalty area. Bobzien now has six goals for the season.
The lead gave coach Peter Pacult's team the upper hand. Klagenfurt had the game under control and only had to worry once in the first half, but the third VAR decision in the first half hour also went in the Violets' favor. Angelo Gattermayer's supposed follow-up goal (27') was disallowed for offside.
The WAC started the second half with three new players and a lot of offensive drive. However, Klagenfurt continued to defend well and did not allow any top-class chances. However, a goal of the year made the game exciting again. Substitute Altunashvili took a deflected corner kick on the volley from 25 meters and slammed the ball into the net via the inside of the bar (70').
Nwaiwu was lucky that he only received a yellow card and not a red after a handball as the last man (83'). In stoppage time, WAC still had a chance to equalize. A header from Sankara Karamoko was saved by goalkeeper Simon Spari (94'), Markus Pink narrowly missed (95').
Klagenfurt won a derby for the first time since September 2022 and picked up three points after a run of four competitive games without a win. It was also a first for Peter Pacult. In the seventh coaching duel with Dietmar Kühbauer in the Bundesliga, the 65-year-old was able to celebrate a victory for the first time since Monday.
