Super League: At the end of a crazy match, Sion rediscovers the taste of victory!

Weaned from success since last August, FC Sion rediscovered the taste of victory in the Super League at the end of a crazy meeting (4-2) on Sunday at Tourbillon during the 14th day. While leading 2-0 at the break, the Valais club saw FC Lucerne, who made their five changes at half-time (!), come back to the score before taking the lead again.

After three months without a victory in the Super League, FC Sion signaled the end of recess. At Tourbillon, the Sédunois won 4-2 against FC Lucerne.

This success, which puts an end to an interminable nine matches, bears the mark of Ilyas Chouaref. Author of a double and also at the origin of Dejan Sorgic’s opener in the 2nd and Jesper Löfgren’s autogoal for the capital 3-2 in the 61st minute, the player trained in Châteauroux recalled that he was indeed the X factor of FC Sion in the absence of the injured Anton Miranchuk. Faced with a team that had forgotten to defend, he achieved a real festival.

Liam Chipperfield’s performance should also be commended. Established for the first time in the league this season, the M20 international also made the right gesture to allow Sorgic to score. The rest went well for Scott’s son.

Lucerne makes… five changes at half-time!

Trailing 2-0 at the break, Lucerne made five changes at half-time including that of Pascal Loretz, injured in the ankle, in the goals. But it was a player who was there at the kick-off who put FC Lucerne back on par with FC Sion.

Scorer in the 49th and 59th – two magnificent successes – Thibault Klidje thought he had dealt a terrible blow to the morale of the Sédunois. But that was without counting on a final inspiration from Chouaref, this overflow from the 61st with a perfect cross which led Löfgren to commit the irreparable.
