Outstanding performance
Hartberg•AttackerHartberg made the perfect start with Marco Hoffmann converting an early penalty and doubling his tally before half-time, but Ried refused to go away, hitting back through Samuel Chukwudi and then Evan Eghosa Aisowieren to level things twice. Despite being outplayed for large stretches - Ried held 59% possession and racked up 75 dangerous attacks to Hartberg's 27 - the home side found a decisive punch through substitute Jonas Karner, who struck within five minutes of coming on to settle it 3-2. Hoffmann was the difference-maker with two clinical finishes, while Ried's profligacy in front of goal, despite matching Hartberg's big chances created, proved costly. The result lifts Hartberg's spirits in a congested mid-table battle, while Ried will rue another game where dominance in play didn't translate to points.
