Vienna, May 12, 2026
The Frauen-Cupfinale between Red Bull Salzburg and Wiener Austria kicks off today at 14:30 CEST in Vienna’s newly renovated Wiener-Sport-Club-Stadion, with Austria Wien widely regarded as the favorites.
Salzburg’s Defensive Strength
Red Bull Salzburg, competing under their new name for the first season, has reached the final without conceding a single goal. Their defensive solidity has been a hallmark of their campaign, and they aim to maintain that record against Austria Wien.
Salzburg captain Lucia Orkic expressed confidence in her team’s ability to compete, stating, *"Es ist gut zu wissen, dass wir schon auf Augenhöhe waren."* ("It’s good to know that we’ve already been on equal footing.") The team’s disciplined approach has been key to their success, particularly in their last league encounter against Austria Wien, where they also kept a clean sheet.
