SK Verwarts Steyr from Liefering returned without a point, but with a new chance: After 75 minutes of play, a violent storm had led to the game being abandoned after 75 minutes when the score was 1-0 for the home side. By then, the team that had been changed by coach Daniel Madlener in three positions – Kevin Sostarits and Nicolas Zdichynec had replaced the injured Silvio Apollonio and Oliver Filip, Valerian Hüttner was preferred in goal instead of Florian Eres – bravely beat the attacking young Bulls .
The 21-year-old goalkeeper then had a lot to do in the first 20 minutes of his debut, because Liefering set an enormously high pace right from the start. Above all, the lightning-fast Karim Konate occupied the red and white defensive. First, the 18-year-old hit the post (2′), then Hüttner saved against the striker from Ivory Coast (8′). After a quarter of an hour, Salzburg still took the lead: Luka Reischl sent a Konate-Stangl pass over the line to make it 1-0.
However, going forward was able to free himself from the constant pressure from the 20th minute and approached the equalizer. After half-chances from Tobias Pellegrini (23′), Joel Dombaxi (24′) and Tolga Günes (25′), Dombaxi had the best opportunity to equalize in the 39th minute. Goalie Jonas Krumrey was able to parry his shot on the short corner. In the second half the match went back and forth until the rain and wind got stronger and finally a thunderstorm made it impossible to continue playing.
