The FCL starts with a bang. Pascal Schürpf can shoot standing up from about 16 meters, but passes the leather beyond the goal. Just seconds later, Schürpf was invaded by FCSG’s side Kräuchi. The ball reaches Ruiz in the middle, giving the guests the advantage. After 20 minutes, the game is over for Schürpf, he is substituted and Ugrinic enters the game for him.

Then the game flattens out a bit. Lucerne is trying to implement Celestini football, that is, the consistent game against the outside world. That works on average – the settings work a few times, but there are too many errors. There was still an excitement: Lukas Görtler spits in the direction of FCL player Tsiy Ndenge – referee Feday San looks at the video footage and does not punish Görtler.

The Lucerna press after the breakdown of the balance and are rewarded in the 50th minute. After a strong cross from Schaub, Sorgic benefits in the middle from the fact that FCSG goalkeeper Zigi is unable to stop the ball properly. After almost an hour of play, Limerick finds himself after an error by Ugrinic: the guests are back in the lead. The FCL kept pressing and after some good chances Ugrinic headed in after a Sidler cross to equalize again.

In the final stages of the game, both teams have a chance to score the winner, but the point is still divided.
