Austrian clubs advance in Conference League qualifiers

Overview

Austrian clubs Rapid Wien and Austria Wien have progressed through the early stages of the UEFA Conference League qualifiers. Rapid Wien began their campaign with a 3-1 win over FC Santa Coloma in Andorra, featuring a first professional goal from 19-year-old Moulaye Haidara. In the Conference League play-offs, Rapid Wien secured a 2-0 home victory against Paide Linnameeskond at the Allianz Stadion. Marco Tilio scored in the 38th minute following a pass from Nikolaus Wurmbrand, followed by a Louis Schaub penalty in the 82nd minute. Rapid Wien is now set to face Heart of Midlothian in the next stage.

Austria Wien has also advanced to the play-off round after a dramatic victory over Beitar Jerusalem. Following a 2-1 first-leg result, the return leg at the Franz-Horr-Stadion ended 1-2 after extra time, leveling the aggregate score. Austria Wien won the subsequent penalty shootout 4-2, with goalkeeper Samuel Sahin-Radlinger saving a penalty and Sanel Saljic converting the final decisive kick. The match, attended by over 7,600 fans, was designated a “high-risk game” by police due to concerns regarding Beitar Jerusalem supporters.

Austria Wien is now scheduled to face Sporting Braga in the final qualifying stage for the Conference League group phase, with legs set for August 20 and August 27.
