Winterthur – Servette 1-0
«We didn’t play a bad game. “Winterthur was good defensively and played this one counterattack very well,” said Servette’s goalie Joël Mall aptly. Winterthur’s Adrian Gantenbein completed a quick counterattack shortly before the last quarter of an hour began.

Servette’s great chance to advance in the long-distance duel for the championship title with the Young Boys came from the penalty spot at the beginning of the second half after Nishan Burkart had illegally stopped Geneva’s Keigo Tsunemoto in the penalty area shortly after the start of the second half. Takuma Nishimura took the penalty – and shot it with a lot of force and little feeling into the Winterthur evening sky, which was clouded with Sahara dust by the Föhn storm.

While the FCW collected valuable points in the fight to advance to the championship round and temporarily moved up to 4th place, they had only been beaten once in the Super League since the end of September and only missed out in the penalty shootout against Viktoria Pilsen from the conference before the international break League-eliminated Genevans to spend Easter Sunday as leaders. YB will play at Yverdon on Monday and could regain a cushion of three points with a win.

FC Lugano achieved their fifth win in a row at bottom team Stade Lausanne-Ouchy. The goals for the 3-1 win all came in the last quarter of an hour. The Luganesi, who further consolidated their 3rd place in the Super League with the away win, were clearly better on the Pontaise, but despite being outnumbered for more than 45 minutes, they had to be patient for a long time until they managed to score goals – and they got up The way there almost got into more trouble.

The new mode brings the Super League its first crunch time as the last quarter of the season approaches. Every point counts in the next five rounds, especially for St. Gallen, Winterthur and Lucerne. But FC Zurich also still has to worry.
Nine of the twelve teams do not yet know before the 29th round on Easter weekend whether they will play in the championship round for a place in the European Cup or in the relegation round against relegation after the 33rd round. Some have almost only a mathematical chance of making it into the top 6, others hardly have to worry. It is particularly tight between St. Gallen, Winterthur and Lucerne.
