About SV Stockerau

SV Stockerau is an Austrian football club based in the town of Stockerau in Lower Austria, founded on 7 May 1907. The club has a long tradition in regional football and plays its home matches at the Stadion Alte Au. Throughout its history, it has mostly competed in the lower and regional tiers of the Austrian league system, representing one of the established provincial clubs outside the major football centers.

The club’s greatest success came in the early 1990s, when it achieved a historic victory in the 1990–91 Austrian Cup. In a remarkable final, second-division SV Stockerau defeated the much stronger Rapid Wien, securing the biggest achievement in its history. This triumph qualified the team for the 1991–92 UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, where it faced Tottenham Hotspur, marking its only appearance in European competition.

After this golden period, SV Stockerau experienced a gradual decline, facing financial difficulties and dropping down the league system. Despite occasional promotions and restructurings, the club has remained in the lower divisions in recent decades. Today, it continues to compete at a regional level, maintaining its historical identity and legacy as a club remembered for one of the most surprising cup victories in Austrian football history.
