In front of their home fans, Flyeralarm Admira came from behind twice to rescue a point against visitors SKN St. Polten in the 8th round of Liga 2 in Austria.
Sierra Leone International George Davies started the contest against former side SKN St. Polten and played the full throttle at the BSFZ Arena on Friday.
The draw means Polten from the Lower Austrian capital missed on a temporary top-of-the-table spot.
Bernd Gschweidl had opened the scoring for the visitors just before the hour mark, but Georg Teigl, after an impressive offensive action, got the leveller in the 43rd minute.
B. Gschweidl doubled the score line in the 71-minute, putting Polten ahead before Patrick Schmidt drew parity for Polten six minutes later.
There were no more goals between the two arch-rivals as they ended 2-2 after the final whistle.
George Davies departed the Polten on January 6, 2023, to join FC Flyeralarm Admira despite being a fan favourite for over five years after he amassed almost 100 games for St. Pölten.
From the first second, it was a competitive game. The Panthers had the first dangerous goal area scene, but captain Zwierschitz headed past the goal (3rd).
