FK Austria Wien extended its winless run in the Admiral Bundesliga to two months after a 1–1 draw against WSG Tirol at the Tivoli Stadion Tirol on November 8, 2026.
The result left the club sitting second from bottom in the standings, prompting stark warnings from within the squad.
Nikolai Baden Frederiksen opened the scoring for the hosts in the 16th minute following a quickly taken free-kick provided by Matthäus Taferner. FK Austria Wien struggled to find offensive solutions during a poor opening half-hour before central defender Aleksandar Dragović equalized just before the interval in the 42nd minute, heading in from close range after an Eckball from Johannes Eggestein was touched on by Reinhold Ranftl.
“Wir müssen die Wahrheit akzeptieren, dass wir dieses Jahr gegen den Abstieg spielen”, said Aleksandar Dragović.

The draw gave interim coach Max Uhlig his first point in charge after taking over the team, though the performance remained a source of frustration. The visitors showed improved energy in the second half, during which Valentino Müller hit the crossbar with a header from an Eggestein cross in the 59th minute, but neither side could find a winner before the final whistle in front of 2,050 spectators.
“Mit unserer eigenen Spielleistung können wir heute sicher nicht zufrieden sein”, said Maximilian Uhlig.
With only eight points from their first 12 matches, the club enters the international break holding a narrow two-point lead over last-placed WAC. The upcoming fixture list presents a demanding test for the team, starting with a home match against undefeated title contenders Red Bull Salzburg on November 22.
The hosts applied early pressure in front of 2,050 fans at the Tivoli Stadion Tirol, where Marco Boras missed a close-range opportunity following an early corner kick in the 7th minute. Samuel Şahin-Radlinger was tested shortly after by a header from former Austria player Moritz Wels, before Nikolai Baden Frederiksen converted cleanly with his right foot into the left corner in the 16th minute following combination play involving Murat Satin and Matthäus Taferner.
Vasilije Marković registered the first shot for the visitors in the 12th minute, which was gathered comfortably by Salko Hamzic.
FK Austria Wien improved after the break, creating additional opportunities through Matteo Schablas, whose 76th-minute shot toward the near post was stopped by Hamzic. Referee Jakob Semler oversaw the fixture, which concluded after three minutes of stoppage time.
