Austria round-up: Wien consolidate top spot

FK Austria Wien kept their advantage at the top of the Austrian Bundesliga at the weekend thanks to a 3-1 home win over Schwarz-Weiss Bregenz.

Points safe
The visitors went ahead on 25 minutes through Laszlo Klausz but Didier Dheedene levelled on the stroke of half time. Roland Linz latched on to Vladimir Janocko's pass to make it 2-1 and Michael Wagner made the points safe a minute from time.

Comfortable victory

Sturm undone
