WAC wins in defense battle: Successful return to the form!

Linz, Österreich - Week of tension in the domestic Bundesliga! The Wolfsberger AC (WAC) received Blau-Weiß Linz on match day 21 and secured an urgently needed victory after two defeats in a row. At halftime, the WAC led 1-0 through a header from Nwaiwu, which fell after a corner kick. This gate once again showed the efficiency of the Carinthian, who saved the narrow lead to the finish line with a strong defensive performance. In the end it was a defense battle that consolidated the WAC in third place in the table, such as Linz coach Gerald Scheiblehner admitted: "The lack of these players weighs difficult, but we will do everything we can to get our fans in the next home game."

The second half brought a clear initiative from Blau-Weiß Linz, but despite good attacks, they could not play out any significant chances. Goalkeeper Radek Vítek, who was back in the goal, showed a remarkable performance and prevented several dangerous degrees from the Linz. The WAC will need the same performance and stability in the upcoming games to claim the strong placement in the table, as krone.at . All eyes are now aimed at the next duel if the 'wolves' want to continue finding their shape while Linz has to fight back to keep up in the upper play-off.
