Liefering vs Floridsdorfer

WALS-SIEZENHEIM, Austria (Interstat) — In a stunning late flurry, Liefering scored three goals in the final seven minutes to overturn a deficit and defeat Floridsdorfer 3-1 in a 2. Liga match on Saturday at Red Bull Arena.

The match, a fixture in Austria’s second division, appeared destined for a narrow Floridsdorfer victory until a dramatic collapse in the dying moments. The visitors had controlled much of the contest and seemed poised to solidify their position in the league table with a crucial away win.

The breakthrough finally came in the 83rd minute when Floridsdorfer substitute Tomislav Glavan found the net, capitalizing on sustained pressure to give his team a deserved lead. The goal seemed to secure three points for the visitors, who had entered the match as strong favorites according to statistical models. Interstat’s ELO system had given Floridsdorfer a 63.5 percent probability to win, though its game simulator had projected a closer 2-1 scoreline.

What followed was a remarkable and rapid unraveling for Floridsdorfer. Just five minutes after falling behind, Liefering drew level. Midfielder Ilia Ivanschitz struck in the 88th minute to ignite the home crowd and shift the momentum entirely.

Before Floridsdorfer could regroup, Liefering completed the turnaround in the second minute of stoppage time. Forward Oghenetejiri Adejenughure netted the decisive goal to make it 2-1, sending the home supporters into a frenzy. The comeback was sealed moments later when Adejenughure scored again in the 90+2 minute, completing a brace and capping a breathtaking five-minute, two-goal personal salvo that transformed the result.

The match was not without its disciplinary moments. Floridsdorfer defender Valentin Sulzbacher received a yellow card in the 44th minute, and teammate Flavio, also a substitute, was booked in the 69th minute.

The result impacts the season trajectories of both clubs. Floridsdorfer, which had defeated Liefering 2-0 in their previous meeting on Oct. 18, 2025, sees its 2. Liga record move to 12 wins, seven losses and six draws. Their record across all competitions is now 14 wins, nine losses and six draws. The loss halts positive momentum from a 3-0 victory over Aust Klagenfurt on March 13 and a 2-0 win against S-W Bregenz on March 10.

For Liefering, the dramatic victory provides a significant boost, improving their league record to eight wins, seven losses and seven draws, an identical mark to their overall record. The win snaps a two-game losing streak that included a 1-0 defeat to St. Pölten and a 5-2 loss to Wels in late March.

Floridsdorfer will look to rebound in its next 2. Liga fixture on April 17 at home against Amstetten. Liefering’s next contest is on the road against Saint Pölten on April 19.
