With the “Vorarlberger Nachrichten”, ORF Vorarlberg presented Vorarlberg’s most spectacular football goal at “Night of Football”
Vienna (OTS) – The ORF Vorarlberg voted together with the “Vorarlberger Nachrichten” (VN) and a prominent panel of experts – the football fans also had a say in the online voting on vorarlberg.ORF.at: Austria Lustenau striker Anthony Schmid was voted the best goal 2023 taken care of. Although the Lustenauers were rarely able to celebrate goals in the Bundesliga autumn season, the one from the French native was a real highlight. The award took place at the “Night of Football” organized jointly with Russmedia on Monday, February 19, 2024, at Casino Bregenz with numerous prominent guests.
Eileen Campbell and Zdravka Parapunova also top
Anthony Schmid’s side kick came out on top in a particularly close election. Even if Lustenauer Austria wasn’t able to win a point against WSG Tirol despite the great goal, his goal was a real highlight for the bottom of the table in the low-goal autumn of 2023. In the expert voting, Anthony Schmid was only just ahead of Eileen Campbell, who scored her first competitive goal for the national team in the Nations League away match in Norway. The fan voting on vorarlberg.ORF.at went to Zdravka Parapunova from the FC Lustenau / FC Dornbirn syndicate.
