Girls without any chance at double winners

On April 26th, in Vienna, FK Austria Vienna suffered a devastating 7-0 loss to FC Red Bull Salzburg in the women's football league. After two draws in the championship group, the match against Austria's strongest team proved to be a crushing defeat. From the start, Austria took control, with Uka creating early chances but failing to capitalize.

Austria doubled their lead in the 7th minute when Cordes scored after a Pfattner corner. Schöffel added to the score in the 21st minute, followed by Pfanner's goal in the 30th minute. Despite a brief improvement from our team, Austria continued to dominate. A poor referee decision on a throw-in allowed Schöffel to score again at the 30th minute.

In the second half, Salzburg showed more composure, creating chances through Lena Triendl and Emelie Kobler. Cordes added a fourth goal with a penalty in the 56th minute. However, Austria's strong defense held firm. Pötzl scored a consolation goal for Salzburg in the 90th minute. The final score was an overwhelming 0-7. This defeat serves as a harsh reminder of the competitive nature of top-tier women's football.

While it's a valuable learning experience, the team will use it to fuel their future efforts for improvement and success.
