Matrei triumphs in the Carinthian League: FC WR comes away empty-handed again!

On August 26, 2025, an emotionally charged match day took place in the Carinthian League. The Iseltaler Kickers from Union Matrei were able to triumph 2-0 against ATUS Ferlach on home soil in the Tauern Stadium. Around 700 spectators experienced an exciting match in which Luca Ronacher laid the foundation for victory in the 21st minute. Benjamin Cosic made it 2-0 with his goal in the 78th minute, cementing the second home win in a row for Matrei, who are increasingly establishing themselves in the league.

In another game, FC WR Nussdorf/Debant suffered a bitter defeat. After a promising start, in which Dominik Sporer took the lead in the 15th minute, the team finally lost to St. Veit 1:3. After half-time, St. Veit equalized and was able to win the game in their favor, which dampened the mood at Nussdorf/Debant.

Further results and highlights from the match day

Matchday also brought other interesting encounters. The duel between URC Thal-Assling and FC Sillian-Heinfels ended 1-1. Denis Kerrniqi gave Thal-Assling the lead, but Gabriel Mayr equalized with a penalty. In addition, FC Dölsach did not get beyond a 2-2 draw against SV Rothenthurn, with Raphael Wibmer scoring both goals for Dölsach. Rapid Lienz, on the other hand, remains without points after a 3-0 defeat against SV Seeboden and is in a difficult position in the table.

The attendance figures are also a sign of interest in local football. There were a few supporters on site in the game between FC WR Nussdorf/Debant and St. Veit, while in the Tauernstadion the atmosphere was lively with 700 fans at the Matrei vs. Ferlach game. This shows that despite the defeats and challenges, the clubs can count on a loyal fan base.
