Grasshoppers are ashamed to the bone in Kriens

The Grasshoppers lose in the Challenge League for the second time in a row and pull off an embarrassing 2: 5 in the fifth round at Kriens.

As a result, the former leader fell to fourth place behind Stade Lausanne-Ouchy, Winterthur and Kriens.

Four days after the loss to the relegated Neuchâtel Xamax (0-1), the Grasshoppers, who had previously started without problems with three wins, did not react. In Kriens they conceded four goals in the 26 minutes after the break. Enes Yesilcayir and Asumah Abubakar were successful twice for Kriens.

The Grasshoppers team was almost completely overhauled after the change of ownership in the summer. But the problems on defense have obviously not been resolved. Over the seasons, they conceded 23 goals in the last nine games of the championship – four or more goals were conceded three times.

Winterthur also beats GC

While Neuchâtel Xamax caught up with GC thanks to their second consecutive win (2-1 against Wil), Stade Lausanne-Ouchy moved up to 1st place as the only undefeated team in the Challenge League. The Vaudois beat Chiasso 4-1, who was last in the table with no points.

In front of the Grasshoppers, together with Stade Lausanne-Ouchy and Kriens, FC Winterthur is also classified. Thanks to a late goal from Gezim Pepsi, the Zurich team won 1-0 in Thun and prevented the Bernese from taking the next step out of the crisis. After the first win with new manager Carlos Bernegger last Friday against Chiasso, the third loss followed in the fifth game. This leaves the penultimate relegated.
