3-0 victory over Altach: Violets win again in Vorarlberg

In the 16th round of the ADMIRAL Women's Bundesliga, the Veilchen came out on top on Saturday with a clear 3-0 away win against SCR Altach, deservedly taking the three points home with them. Captain Verena Volkmer with a brace and Alisa Ziletkina with another goal led the Violets to victory.

It was a real lightning start for the Violets. It took just 19 seconds for Verena Volkmer to put Austria ahead after an assist from Lena Triendl (1'). The visitors took control of the game right from the start and showed their dominance. Despite the early deficit, Altach were not deterred and kept trying to play forwards.

Maria Olsen with duel against former club

The hosts soon had their first dangerous opportunity when they won a corner kick. However, this was cleared by the Austria defence (10'). The Violets tried to respond with a dangerous move, but the ball, which Kathi Schiechtl placed in the centre, was intercepted.

The hosts had several shots in the first half, but the ball either flew past the goal or was stopped by the Violet defence. At the other end of the pitch, the Violets repeatedly produced some dangerous moves. This included Austria's direct free-kick opportunity. However, the shot by Maria Olsen, who was playing against her former club in this clash, landed on the crossbar and narrowly missed making it 2-0 (23').

Volkmer goes into the break with a brace

In the 29th minute, it was Volkmer again who scored after a perfect assist from Triendl to make it 2-0. The second goal gave the visitors further impetus, while Altach continued to try hard to get the first goal. In the end, they went into the break with a deserved 2-0 lead.

After the break, Austria did not start quite as aggressively as at the beginning of the first half. Altach were now able to fight their way forwards more often and chased the equaliser. But their attempts were unsuccessful. In the 66th minute, Larissa Haidner once again showed her strength and saved a dangerous shot from Altach.

Ziletkina came, saw and scored

The freshly substituted Alisa Ziletkina soon sealed the game with her goal to make it 3-0 (76'). Triendl tried once more to increase the final score, but the Violets‘ last chance, a possible fourth goal, landed on the crossbar (86’).

In the end, they deserved to win 3-0. Although Altach put up a strong fight at times, the superiority of the Viennese side was clearly evident in many moments. After the clash in Dornbirn three weeks ago, they were also able to record a victory in Altach. The Violets secured their next away win thanks to strong team play and brilliant individual performances.
