Decline and Bankruptcy

Unfortunately, SV Mattersburg's fortunes took a turn for the worse when it was declared bankrupt in August 2020. This financial collapse was largely due to the closure of their main financial backer, Commerzialbank Mattersburg, following an accounting scandal. In the aftermath, Mattersburger SV 2020 emerged as a phoenix club, taking over the youth facilities and starting to compete at the lowest regional level in Burgenland for the 2021/22 season.
