| American Football | 07/12/2025

The Danube Dragons (8-2) host the Prague Black Panthers (5-5) in Saturday’s Austrian Football League semifinal, with the regular-season champions aiming to defend their home turf at Donaufeld against the defending Austrian Bowl holders.

Regular season showdown sets stage
The teams split their 2025 matchups: Danube opened with a 17-3 defensive masterclass, while Prague countered with a 20-10 May victory. QB Alexander Reischl (1,405 yards, 11 TDs) leads the Dragons’ aerial attack, targeting WR Michael Schachermayr (30 receptions, 332 yards, 4 TDs). Prague leans on QB Norman Douglas (848 yards, 4 TDs) and WR Jakub Wolesky (43 catches, 421 yards) to challenge Danube’s secondary.

Ground game contrast
Prague’s rushing offense, anchored by RB Pavel Prokop (614 yards, 4 TDs), contrasts with Danube’s committee approach led by Matthias Löcker (227 yards, 3 TDs). The Panthers’ physicality could test the Dragons’ front seven.

Home advantage fuels confidence
Danube head coach Florian Pos emphasized Donaufeld’s fortress reputation: “Playing in front of our crowd is a huge advantage. We’re motivated and ready to defend it with full vigor.” The Dragons’ top-ranked defense (9.6 PPG allowed) seeks to neutralize Prague’s balanced attack.

Playoff pedigree vs. resilience
Prague, despite a rocky 5-5 campaign, brings championship experience. Their defense, which held Danube to 10 points in May, must pressure Reischl to disrupt rhythm.
