After Rapid, Salzburg and the LASK, the Union Raiffeisen Gurten pulled the big lot in the ÖFB Cup in the fourth year in a row. This year the second round against SV Oberbank Ried. Now the game date was determined by the ÖFB: The game will be played on Tuesday, August 26, at 7.30 p.m. The Park21-Arena in Gurten is given as the venue on the homepage of the football association. But that’s not true. The game is played in the Klaus-Roitinger Stadium in Ried. Football fans in the Innviertel can once again look forward to a football festival in the Roitinger Stadium. Most recently, straps dueled with the LASK there, and the regional league team only eliminated Rapid in 2023.

“We hope for at least 5000 visitors. The start of the game at 7.30 p.m. is ideal, and there are also summer vacation,” says Sebastian Dietrich, the sporting director of the Union Gurten in an interview with the OÖNachrichten. Dietrich expects the ticket sales to begin at the end of the week. There will only be a limited extent. The game is transferred to ORF Sport Plus in a three-person conference.
