This Friday, July 26 at 18:00 CEST, despite everything, it is time: after weeks of intense preparation, we are about to play our first competitive match under the direction of our new coach, Pepijn Lijnders, in the first round of the UNIQA ÖFB Cup against FC Dornbirn 1913.
Four convincing friendly wins in the summer and a draw made our boys want to discover more: now they want to prove that they can also perform in a competitive game.

However, our Red Bulls will show the seriousness and intensity they want for the new season, because we aim for a lot!
