The Vorarlberg side started the match better and had more of the play, with Gabryel creating the first chance with a long-range shot (5').

The hosts continued to have more possession, but real goal-scoring opportunities only arose towards the end of the first half.

Dredon Kelly broke through in the 36th minute but his shot was denied by Estevao. Daigo Araki (41') and Atsushi Zaizen (45') also squandered good opportunities for Bregenz.

Araki Only Hits the Post

In the second half, the game saw significantly more pace, with the visitors, who had been subdued until then, emerging stronger from the changing rooms.

Vincent Augustus only hit the side netting a few seconds after the restart (46'), and shortly after, a header from David Peham created danger (48').

After that, Bregenz regained control of the game: First, Gabryel shot over the goal (53'), then Araki only hit the post (59'). Substitute Anteo Fetahu's shot was saved by Estevao (63').

Zaizen Misses Last-Minute Winner - Fetahu Sent Off

As rain began, the Mostviertlers' only significant attempt on goal against the Vorarlberg side came from a shot by Yannick Vötter (65'). In the 73rd minute, the Vorarlberg team celebrated what they believed was the opening goal, but Fetahu was marginally offside when the pass was made.

Shortly before the final whistle, both teams had a chance to win: Nussbaumer created danger with a half-volley from distance (86'), and shortly after, Zaizen missed a huge opportunity for victory from around eleven meters (88').

In stoppage time, Fetahu was shown a straight red card for an altercation with Lukas Deinhofer (90'+1). SKU consequently ranks sixth, while Bregenz is tenth.
