Allerheiligen vs Wolfsberger AC II

Wolfsberger AC II's second-half surge proved decisive. After holding a narrow 1-0 lead at the break, the WAC reserves struck twice in quick succession after the restart, effectively killing the contest before Allerheiligen could build any momentum. The hosts' consolation came too late to alter the outcome.

Y. Dermane (Wolfsberger AC II) — The midfielder controlled the tempo from deep, recycling possession and breaking up Allerheiligen attacks to give the visitors a platform to build from.

C. Parlak (Wolfsberger AC II) — A constant threat on the flank, Parlak's pace and direct running caused problems for the Allerheiligen defence throughout the 90 minutes.

C. Berger (Allerheiligen) — The forward was lively up front and scored the hosts' consolation goal, giving the home fans something to cheer late on.

The 3-1 scoreline reflects the gap between a Regionalliga Mitte side (WAC II) and a team from a tier below in the Regionalliga Süd-Steiermark. Wolfsberger AC II's 1-0 half-time lead suggests they were patient in breaking down the hosts rather than overwhelming them early. The second-half acceleration — two goals in quick succession — points to superior fitness levels as the pre-season programme progressed. Allerheiligen's consolation shows they maintained some attacking threat, but the 18 previous H2H meetings (Allerheiligen leading 9-6 in wins with 3 draws) demonstrate this is a fixture the home side has historically been competitive in — this result was a slight deviation from the norm.

For Allerheiligen, this was the fourth pre-season friendly under coach Zoran Begic. The team opens its Regionalliga Süd-Steiermark campaign on 7 August 2026 with an away fixture at Deutschlandsberg. The result highlights defensive vulnerabilities that need addressing before competitive action begins.

Wolfsberger AC II, who finished 10th in Regionalliga Mitte last season, showed the quality expected of a Bundesliga reserve side. The result builds on their pre-season win over Völkermarkt (4-0) and provides useful momentum heading into the new Regionalliga Mitte season.

A straightforward pre-season result that reflected the division between the two sides. Wolfsberger AC II's superior fitness and quality told after the break. Allerheiligen will take the consolation goal as a small positive but have clear defensive work to do before their league opener on 7 August.
