Donaufeld gets championship title, Young Violet's true promotion opportunities!

Donaufeld, Österreich - Last weekend, the SR Donaufeld secured the championship title in the Regionalliga Ost early. The team celebrated an important success with a 2-1 win against the Favac, one lap before the end. This result means that Donaufeld has four points ahead of the top of the table. The goals for Donaufeld scored Mass Scherzadeh in the 53rd minute and Ilija Petkovic in the 80th minute, while Kenny Schincariol scored the connecting goal for Favac in injury time. Marko Stevanovic saw the red card in the 58th minute, which significantly impaired the opportunities for Favac. Despite the championship title, Donaufeld has not applied for a license for the Admiral 2nd league and will therefore remain in the regional league in the coming season.

From the game of the Young Violets against ASV Siegendorf, the team emerged as the winner. With a 3: 1, the Young Violets triumphed over the bottom of the table. Here, too, ASV Siegendorf was initially in the lead thanks to ifechukwu Okechukwu Amobi, who scored 1-0 in the 24th minute. An own goal of Julian Klar in the 36th minute equalized the game, followed by a goal by Julian Roider in the 48th minute and the final score by Philipp Hosiner in the 80th minute. These results have increased the chances of promotion of the Young Violets, since they are now tied with FC Marchfeld Donauauen and SC Neusiedl in fourth place.

advancement of the Young Violets

The Young Violets are on the best way to keep their chances of promotion to the 2nd league. To create the climb, you have to place yourself among the top two. The Young Violet's decisive games will face the next Friday because they will compete against Traiskirchen, while Marchfeld Donauauen meets the Vienna Sports Club and Neusiedl plays against the master Donaufeld. All three teams have 55 points before the last match day. A possible danger to the rise of the Young Violets is the ASK Voitsberg, which could descend as 14th of the 2nd league, as long as the Young Violets rise.

These developments take place against the background of the current regulation to rise from the regional league to the 3rd league. In the 2024/25 season, there are efforts to reform the ascent, with 17 out of 18 clubs in the Regionalliga relay northeast striving for a league reform under the motto "Promotion reform 2025". The aim of this initiative is that all masters have to rise. There are currently five seasons in the regional league, from which a total of four teams rise to the 3rd league. The masters of the Regionalliga West and Southwest rise directly, while the other places are decided by play-offs. This regulation was put into force at the beginning of the 2020/2021 season to make the rise more fairly.

With regard to the upcoming promotion games that take place on May 28th and June 1, 2025, it will be exciting for the ambitious teams of the regional league. The final day of the amateurs, which will take place on May 24, 2025, also causes excitement, since 21 state cup endgames are also held in this context.
