Instead of restarting the search for the YB leader, FC Basel is suffering another Super League setback, even a bitter one: the Basel team lose the classic to FCZ 1: 4 at home.
All the goals were scored in the last half hour and the result is historic for FCZ. For the first time since August, the Zurich team won a championship match in Basel. And for the first time since April 2016, they scored goals again in the Super League at St. Jakob-Park. All had lost the last six classics in Basel with a total of 0:17 goals.
For their part, the people of Basel also have to register something strange. For just the second time in the Super League era, since 2003/04, FCB have scored just one point from three consecutive home games. December games against Young Boys and St. Gallen finished 0-2 and 0-0 respectively. After all, Arthur Cabral finished with a 264-minute Basel goalless home game with the temporary connecting goal at 1: 2.
The victory of the FCZ, who had not scored in the last three games of the championship, was a surprise on the one hand, but on the other hand it was more than deserved after the performance in the second half: FCZ dominated, Basel disappointed. wrong. Two goals from Zurich were counted at own goal, but the respective attacks seemed to provoke these own goals. The scorers for “Real” Zurich were Lasse Sobiech and, with a penalty in injury time, Antonio Marchesano.
34-year-old international Blerim Dzemaili brought hopeful Under-21 international Toni Domgjoni out of the defensive midfield in his comeback with FC Zurich. Together with central defender Lasse Sobiech, Dzemaili organized the defensive game skillfully and effectively for a longer period. He was always there, made a decisive pass and played an important role in the victory of coach Massimo Rizzo’s team.
Only towards the end of the first half could the Zurich team be strongly dominated. During this time, goalkeeper Yanick Brecher had to clear three times in a desperate situation in just a few minutes, two of them after shots from Arthur Cabral.
For coach Ciriaco Sforza’s team, the match was a disappointment in every way. Aside from the few minutes of the first half, the Baslers almost never pulled off hard-hitting attacks, and on defense they revealed still and still weaknesses.
