SCR Altach breaks the dry spell! Victory at Blau-Weiß Linz!

After almost half a year without a win, SCR Altach has finally found its way back to winning ways! On February 15, 2025, the Vorarlbergers achieved an impressive 3-1 away win at Blau-Weiß Linz. This success brings a bright smile back to the players' faces after waiting for the next victory since August 18, 2024. “While celebrating, you noticed that we don’t really know how to celebrate properly anymore,” central defender Paul Koller joked on “Sky” after the game, underlining his team’s long dry spell.

A victory that raises morale

Coach Fabio Ingolitsch, who at just 32 is the youngest Bundesliga coach, sees the positive development of his team, despite an overall disappointing record of just two draws and six defeats in eight games since he took over. "We've sold well in the last few weeks. I'm just happy that it worked today," emphasized Ingolitsch. The effectiveness of the attackers in particular was crucial to finally leaving the pitch as winners. The game highlighted the team's exhausting negative streak with an own goal from Ronivaldo - additional moments of happiness were welcome after a lot of things didn't seem to work before.

Interruptions and tensions

For Blau-Weiß Linz, the match did not go as hoped. After the contract extension with coach Gerhard Scheiblehner, expectations were high to score against bottom team Altach. But Scheiblehner expressed his dissatisfaction with the Altach team's time-playing game: "The performance was a bit embarrassing in the last 20 minutes." The hosts were anxious to defend their three-point lead over their rivals, but were ultimately surprised by Altach's traditional routine, which became a challenge for Linz. Both coaches agree that the coming games will be crucial for the table placement laola1.at and sn.at report.
