Just five minutes later, midfielder Lukas Wagner doubled the lead with a fierce shot from the edge of the box that deflected off a defender and into the net.

Schwechat continued to pour forward. In the 22nd minute, a well-worked free-kick routine saw defender Markus Hofmann head home unchallenged.

Second Half: More of the Same

FC 1980 Wien attempted to regroup during the interval but failed to stem the tide. Schwechat added a fifth goal in the 58th minute through substitute Thomas Eder, who tapped in from a cross after some sloppy defending.
