Rain! Match in Salzburg cancelled – News – SK Austria Klagenfurt

Austria Klagenfurt’s away game in the sixth round of the 2024/25 ADMIRAL Bundesliga at Red Bull Salzburg cannot take place as planned on Saturday. A preliminary inspection carried out by the ÖFBL on Friday afternoon has shown that the pitch at the Red Bull Arena is unplayable.

“It’s a shame, the team was really looking forward to the match and was ready to give the favorite a tough fight. Then, halfway to Salzburg on the bus, they received the news that the match had been canceled due to the weather. Of course, it’s very annoying that the international break has been extended like this, but I’m sure our coach Peter Pacult will make sure that the boys stay in rhythm,” says sports director Günther Gorenzel.

Due to the heavy rainfall in recent days, the ground in many areas of the Red Bull Arena pitch is already extremely deep. As the weather forecast for the coming days in Salzburg does not predict any improvement, but rather more rainfall, the match has been cancelled by the Austrian Football Bundesliga and postponed to a later date, which will be announced later.

For the Violets, preparations for the duel in the seventh round of the ADMIRAL Bundesliga 2024/25 on September 21 (5 p.m.) in the Wörthersee Stadium against TSV Hartberg begin on Saturday with a training session in the Klagenfurt sports park. Tickets are available Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the office and around the clock in the online shop.
