Live: FC Zurich – Young Boys – YB harmless, FCZ with the efficiency of a master
– YB harmless, the FCZ with the efficiency of a master
On Saturday evening, the leader welcomes the Young Boys, who in turn want to keep in touch with Basel – and have to watch out for Lugano.
And then that was it from half-time 1. It’s not a spectacle, not by a long shot. The Young Boys didn’t make a good impression, they had nine corners and had only one chance. And when Marchesano once launched Ceesay, the returnee Camara looked very bad. This is how FC Zurich leads after 45 minutes thanks to the efficiency of a future champion. And we’ll read you again in 15 minutes, see you soon.
The Young Boys get another corner kick and even have to intervene for the first time. Tendency also rising among the Bernese.
Ngamaleu! The Cameroonian finishes well after Doumbia plays the ball carelessly into the middle. But Ngamaleu’s attempt was a bit too high.
We had to wait 44 minutes for something like this! In fact, the Bernese come to a conclusion after a standard. Camara gets the better of Kryeziu but narrowly pulls with his header.
But perhaps this conclusion is premature. YB gets a free kick a little too quickly after Marchesano fouled Niasse.
The first half is coming to an end and the realization remains that such players make champions. FCZ didn’t contribute much to a nice game in the first half, but took the lead thanks to a brilliant moment from their captain and the cool-headedness of their top scorer.
YB should now slowly have arrived at corner ball number 10, the guests could not keep the rhythm, pack the Guinness book again. Although, so little danger with so many corner kicks, that’s also record-breaking.
Some excitement: Aliti fouls Elia and then prevents the free kick from being taken quickly. Well, a second yellow card for something like that would have been a bit tough.
Yes, we already know, it’s just a report of completion, but it still has to be said: With this score, YB would finally have no chance of becoming Swiss champions in 2022.
Yes, there is such a thing! A moment so typical for this FCZ: The Young Boys lose the ball in midfield, Marchesano doesn’t take a second, sends Ceesay with the most FCZ-like move ever, Camara looks very old and it’s already 1-0 for the home team!
Oh well. Coric’s cross is cleared without even getting close to Ballmoos’ goalie.
Now the FCZ gets a free kick. That’s often the attempt for the leaders of the table this season. Just take a look.
Ceesay with a spectacular overhead kick in the worst possible place. But at least there is … exactly, corner kick!
There’s time for an interim info: Kryeziu didn’t see yellow at all, but SRF fooled us nicely with its display.
The telling stats after the first 26 minutes:
Second yellow card for a FCZ defender and that quite early: Kryeziu is cautioned for a foul on Siebatcheu. Only Kamberi is missing.
Not really dangerous either, ends with a throw-in for YB.
Uh, corner kick, but this time for FCZ, we’re excited about that.
And again, Breitenreiter gets upset. But was unlucky, Camara pushes Ceesay, who bounces in the Maceiras running back. Painful for the FCZ striker, who has already been hit in the head.
FCZ coach Breitenreiter and Lionel Tschudi greeted each other very friendly before the game. Now, 20 minutes later, they’re fiddling their opinions properly. And not much happens on the pitch.
