Servette remains in contact with the lead in the Super League. The Grenat scored a great home victory against Lugano on Sunday (3-0), despite the expulsion of Timothé Cognat in the 59th minute.
The Servettians could have lost their footing when their number 8 let his sole drag on Milton Valenzuela’s ankle and Mr. Wolfensberger went from yellow to red after viewing the VAR. It didn’t happen.
Four minutes earlier, Servette had finally managed to make Amir Saipi bend in a state of grace. The Luganais goalkeeper made numerous saves during a first half largely dominated by the Genevans (13 shots to 1), twice deflecting Miroslav Stevanovic’s attempts (18th, 31st). And when he was beaten, his crossbar came to repel two headers from Yoan Severin (5th, 21st).
Doubled by Rouiller
As a detonator, Derek Kutesa finally fired a shot that Saipi was unable to block. Enzo Crivelli took the opportunity to score his 4th goal of the season in the Super League (55th).
At 10 against 11, the Garnet initially withstood the shock, before taking shelter under the leadership of their captain Steve Rouiller. The defender scored a nice double (82nd, 88th) to allow Servette to come back up to Ticino in the standings, one point behind leader Basel.
YB bat Saint-Gall
In a duel from the second half of the table, Young Boys beat St. Gallen 3-1 at Wankdorf. A few days after their rout in the Champions League against Atalanta (6-1 defeat), the Bernese found their smile again thanks to goals from Darian Males (23rd), Cedric Itten (26th) and Silvère Ganvoula (96th).
