The 24-year-old Frenchman came on as a substitute in the 81st minute and finished off a counter-attack six minutes later with a well-placed low shot. It was Baroan‘s first goal in his 20th game for Winterthur – and a very important one. Because GC was no longer able to respond to this late retreat. This means that there was a winner in the 13th meeting between the two teams, and Winterthur was the eighth.
FCW celebrated a championship win on July 20 in the season opener against St. Gallen. Until the duel with the Grasshoppers, only a point was added in the 0-0 draw against Yverdon. Now the hosts celebrated their next success, thanks to which they managed to hand the YB Champions last place in the table, at least until Sunday.
The grasshoppers, on the other hand, saw their upward trend come to an abrupt halt. They have shown attractive performances recently with wins in Bern and the Cup in Thun as well as a final against Servette. In Winterthur, coach Marco Schällibaum’s team had more of the game, but hardly had any chances.
