Match report

A minute later, the ball hits Servet’s goal for the first time. But it was too early to rejoice: Chader, who was supposed to provide the assist, was offside when Meier passed the ball. It is the Servettiens on the other hand who score the first goal of the match. After a cross from Stefanovic, Jaquez is too far away from Antonis. Even Loritz couldn’t do anything here anymore.

Shortly afterwards, thanks to a courageous goal-line intervention by Gashari, Geneva’s 2-0 lead was on the verge of being thwarted. But there is cause for celebration in the 33rd minute: Frederic with a long throw for Dorn. He picks up the ball, turns, and crosses the ball into the middle – Oettiger making it 1-1 in perfect fashion.

The equalizer gave FCL another boost shortly before half-time, but a brilliant shot from Chader was blocked by Geneva. In the last minutes before the end of the first half, FCL was the better team, but Lucerne was unable to score the second goal.

At the beginning of the second 45 minutes, Otiger almost scored his second goal. After a wonderful pass from Oko, his shot was blocked by Mole. On the other hand, a missile from Tsunemoto shot just over the crossbar. Chader also has another good chance, but goalkeeper Servet Moll is in his position.

In the 61st minute, the duel returned again, with Moll versus Chader. But this time, it ended well for the Frenchman in an FCL shirt. His long-range shot hit the net behind Moll. However, FCL’s joy does not last long. Just four minutes after the opening goal, Bedia made it 2-2.

But things are getting worse for the people of Lucerne. With less than ten minutes to go, Bula scored with a volley to make it 3-2 to the home side – and substitute Vliger failed to hit the post. Servette and Lucerne exchanged public blows in the second half. FCL had to settle for another stoppage-time goal: the ball bounced into Dorn’s hands, resulting in a penalty kick. Crivelli did not have to ask twice for the penalty point and scored the final score 4:2 in favor of Servette. Much more could have actually been achieved for Lucerne in this match.
