With three goals from seven shots on goal, the Biel team appeared extremely efficient in the first half. The 1-0 was scored in the 4th minute by Lias Andersson, who celebrated his 26th birthday on Sunday.
For his fourth goal of the season, the Swede attacked the Kloten keeper Ludovic Waeber alone after a wonderful counterattack and took advantage of the large gap between his guards. In the 34th minute there was little missing and Andersson would have been successful again with a penalty – it failed on the crossbar.
Säteri with his first shutout of the season
In addition to Andersson, 20-year-old defender Gaël Christ (11th) and Johnny Kneubuehler (19th) also scored for the Zealanders in the first third. The latter was the match winner on Friday in the 3-1 win in Zug with a goal and two assists.
The guests, who were badly served by the clear result, replaced Waeber in the 54th minute during a power play, but they were unable to defeat the strong Biel goalkeeper Harri Säteri.
The Finn celebrated his first shutout of the season thanks to 32 saves. Ramon Tanner’s 4-0 (56th) was a shot into the empty goal.
While the Biel team improved by one position in the rankings to 9th place with their third win in the last four games and the fourth in a row against Kloten, the Zurich team are still in 7th place after their fourth away defeat in a row.
