In the 69th minute, Lucerne coach Fabio Celestini had seen enough. Lucerna had more of the game, but the 1-0 against Sion did not want to fall. Celestini reacted with a double change and brought with Yvan Alounga and Ibrahmia Ndiaye 2 new offensive forces.
These lit up immediately. The only 18-year-old Alounga, who plays for the U-18 national team, immediately left several Sioners on their feet with his first action in the 70th minute, dangerously shoved the ball into the penalty area from the left and forced Jan Bamert to uncontrolled defense – Own goal and 1-0 for Lucerne.
Alounga kept turning afterward and always caused danger. In the 81st minute with success: after a rebound from Sion goalkeeper Kevin Fickentscher, he was there and pushed for the final score 2-0. For the center forward, who moved from the Aarau Challenge League to Central Switzerland in the summer, it was the first goal in the Super League.
Lucerne already more dangerous in the first half
Even before the break, the Lucerne team had better chances. Louis Schaub missed the best chance after a sugar pass from Filip Ugrinic. But the Austrian, who shined as the winner of the match last weekend, failed due to the good reaction of Fickentscher.
Sion, on the other hand, had a hard time and was hardly able to create opportunities. In addition, coach Fabio Grosso had to make a change from the beginning because newcomer Luca Clemenza was injured. The experienced Geoffrey Serey Dié replaced the Italian, a move that had significantly less impact than Celestini’s exchange in the 69th minute.
