For the first time this season, FC Luzern was able to string together 3 victories de suite – it’s a run that contributes to the fact that the Barrage fight in the Super League is only decided on the home straight. Should GC lose against Basel on Thursday, Lucerne and the Grasshoppers would be level and just one point behind Sion (37 points).
The game in the Tourbillon in Sitten was much less close than the forthcoming relegation fight: Anto Grgic brought the home side back to 1:3 after a hands-penalty in the 86th minute, but the decision had already been made a quarter of an hour earlier: With a wonderful shot from 20 meters, Lucerne’s Mohamed Dräger missed Sion goalie Kevin Fickentscher.
Fly catching follows the big save
The “Lights” had already set the course for victory shortly before the end of the first half, when Sion’s goalkeeper Fickentscher made a violent lapse after a corner kick and Dejan Sorgic benefited from it: The veteran only had to hit the empty goal (44th minute). ).
Even before the goal overture, Sion had taken the scepter in hand and played his way several times in the direction of the Sion penalty area. However, it was the defensive strengths of the Valais that kept the zero on the scoreboard for the time being. Fickentscher and Samuele Campo knew how to put themselves in the limelight:
- 12 minutes: The guests launch a quick attack in midfield, which ends in a 1-1 situation between Campo and Fickentscher: Campo’s lob comes dangerously close to the goal line before Sion’s Birama Ndoye becomes the savior with full commitment.
- 35 minutes: Fickentscher quite rightly celebrates himself just minutes before making his mistake after parrying a dangerous header on Sorgy’s wrist.
Here’s how to proceed
The long-distance duel for direct relegation goes into the next round on Thursday, May 19: while Sion travels to relegated Lausanne, Lucerne welcomes the Bernese Young Boys (live on SRF) at home. Both games will kick off at 8:30 p.m.
