Scheiblehner's outcry: unfairness in the Linz football debacle!
After a heated game on February 16, 2025, Blau-Weiß Linz coach Gerald Scheiblehner was in a wave of outrage over his team's performance against bottom-placed Altach, which lost 3-1. Scheiblehner, who has just extended his contract until 2027, expressed clear criticism of the alleged acting skills of the Vorarlberg players. He complained that the opposing team was more concerned with lying on the ground exercises in the last 20 minutes of the game than actually defending themselves.
