Servette’s adventure in the Europa League came to an end in the second qualifying round. Geneva lost 0-1 to Stade Reims.
The loss is annoying for Alain Geiger’s team. Because the sixth of the canceled Ligue 1 season was by no means an overwhelming opponent. But Servette failed to create danger in front of the French goal throughout the season.
Hardly any chance at the Stade de Genève
The Grenats had no first-rate opportunities. Isolated shots over the goal and a direct header to the hands of Reims goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic were the only significant opportunities for the Geneva team.
Stade Reims, for example, had a serene and sometimes somewhat listless performance to advance to the third qualifying round. And a swiftly presented attack was enough for the guests to land the only hit necessary.

The goal of the match fell in minute 4 and gave a bad report to the Servette’s back. Captain Anthony Sauthier gave Dereck Kutesa too much space. The forward’s precise center, who had spent his youth at Servette, found a serve in the center. Valon Berisha was left criminally alone, and the Kosovar only had to extend his foot.
Servette had 86 minutes to equalize. But despite the many parts of the game, nothing emerged that could be told. Rather, it was Stade Reims that nearly made it 2-0 with the last action of the game. But the Dutchman Kaj Sierhuis only hit the post.
