Career as a football referee

Thomas Gangl in portrait

Thomas Gangl's footballing path, however, was mapped out by his father Hans Gangl, who himself led numerous games as a referee in the Regionalliga West for years . Therefore, Thomas Gangl took the soccer referee exam on April 30, 1993 and concentrated intensively on his new role.

Supported and challenged by his father, but above all by his own ambition, Thomas Gangl was able to quickly climb the ladder of success and make a name for himself as a referee. His commitment was rewarded with the fact that he was soon allowed to lead games in the Vorarlberger Landesliga and in the Regionalliga West.

On July 1, 2001, Thomas Gangl was added to the squad of the Austrian Bundesliga for game management in the first division , where he made his debut in the game SC Untersiebenbrunn against DSV Leoben (1-0). After he was able to come up with good performances in the second highest league, he was promoted to the Austrian Bundesliga a year later. There he made his debut on September 11, 2002 in the game Grazer AK against FC Admira Wacker Mödling (2: 3).

In addition, Thomas Gangl was able to look forward to his first international assignments as fourth official in the 2002/03 season . He had his first international game management on September 14, 2005 with the U20 international match between Switzerland and Germany (2: 1). However , Thomas Gangl can no longer be included in the squad of FIFA referees because he has exceeded the age limit.

Greatest successes

Thomas Gangl in the final of the ÖFB Cup 2008/09

The greatest success in his career as a football referee was the nomination for the game management of the finals in the ÖFB Cup 2008/09 between FC Admira Wacker Mödling and FK Austria Wien (1: 3 after extra time) on May 24, 2009 in the Mattersburger Pappelstadion .

Rejection by SC Austria Lustenau

After decisive mistakes by the referee team around Thomas Gangl at the Vorarlberg derby (July 23, 2010) between SCR Altach and SC Austria Lustenau (final score 2-0 - the 1-0 for the home team came after an irregular free kick, the 1: 1 was unjustifiably not recognized due to being offside) the Lustenauer Club declared that he would reject Gangl as a game master in the future. The reason given in a broadcast was that after 2005 (at that time von Altach, among others, scored a goal with his hand that was recognized by Gangl), Austria was again at a disadvantage in this derby.
