SKU Ertl Glas Amstetten began their Austrian 2.Liga campaign with a solid 2-0 home win against SK Sturm Graz II on August 2, 2025. A professional performance saw Amstetten secure a clean sheet and all three points against the reserve side of Bundesliga club Sturm Graz. Amstetten controlled the tempo from the outset and were rewarded with a goal from a corner in the first half. They continued to press and doubled their lead early in the second half with a clinical finish following a swift counter-attack. Sturm Graz II struggled to break down a well-organized Amstetten defense and rarely tested the home goalkeeper. This opening-day victory provides a perfect platform for Amstetten's season, instilling confidence as they aim to improve on last year's finish. For the young Graz II side, it was a tough introduction to the challenges of the second division.
