The fifth game in a row without a win for FC Sion! Held in check (1-1) at Yverdon at Tourbillon, the Valaisans did not experience the pleasure of success in the Super League for two months.
However, this point is not a “bad” point. Following a strike from man-of-the-match Boris Cespedes in the 40th, the Sédunois had the merit of never giving up on an evening that was at times sorely lacking in inspiration. However, they had to wait until the 81st minute to equalize with Dejan Sorgic’s subtle deflection off a cross from Ilyas Chouaref, their most dangerous attacker.
Everything would have been simpler for FC Sion if they had succeeded at the start of the game. So Chouaref found the post and a header from Cespedes was saved on the line in a very good start. But as the minutes went on, the Valaisans lowered their tone to allow Yverdon to weave his web in silence.
Lausanne raises her head
A week after delivering a dismal performance during the Loch derby, Lausanne-Sport has raised its head. In Lucerne, he picked up his first point of the season on natural grass. This 2-2 draw against FC Lucerne should not cause any regrets in the Vaudois camp even as Alban Ajdnini scored and Alvyn Sanchez allowed them to take a two-step lead before the 20th minute.
Facing the leader, the Vaudois, in fact, showed a momentum that we hoped in vain seven days before against Servette FC. This result in Lucerne will allow Ludovic Magnin to go through the national team break with a new serenity.
