Schwarz-Weiss Bregenz 2-0 SC Imst | International Club Friendly | 19 July 2026

Schwarz-Weiss Bregenz recorded a comfortable 2‑0 victory over SC Imst in an international club friendly on 19 July 2026, played behind closed doors at the ImmoAgentur Stadion in Bregenz, Austria. The Austrian side used the match as a key pre‑season test, while Imst – a club from the Austrian Regionalliga – provided a competitive but ultimately outmatched opponent.

First Half – Bregenz Dominate

Bregenz, competing in the Austrian 2. Liga (second division), controlled proceedings from the outset. Their high press unsettled Imst’s buildup play. The opening goal arrived in the 22nd minute when striker Felix Gschösser latched onto a through ball from midfielder Lukas Tiefenbrunner and finished coolly past the Imst goalkeeper. Bregenz continued to push and doubled their lead just before half‑time. A corner was headed goalwards by defender David Suppan, and after a goalmouth scramble, midfielder Patrick Salomon stabbed the ball home from close range.

Second Half – Controlled Performance

The second half saw Bregenz manage the game effectively, keeping possession and limiting Imst to speculative efforts from distance. The clean sheet was preserved thanks to a solid defensive line and two saves from goalkeeper Jakob Grüner. Imst rarely threatened in the final third, with their best chance a free kick that sailed over the bar.

Key Takeaways

• Pre‑Season Progress: Bregenz’s fitness and sharpness were evident as they executed their pressing system well.
• Attacking Fluency: The link‑up between Gschösser and Tiefenbrunner bodes well for the upcoming league campaign.
• Imst’s Struggles: The lower‑league side lacked the quality to trouble a professional outfit but will value the experience.

Schwarz-Weiss Bregenz will take confidence from the clean sheet and two‑goal performance as they finalise preparations for the 2026‑27 Austrian second‑tier season. SC Imst return to their Regionalliga schedule with lessons learned.
