Super League against Lausanne – FCZ: Liberation or an inglorious club record? – Sports

The people of Zurich want to avoid a negative record in Vaud on Saturday.

The Zurich team would have had to spend a few minutes last Saturday, and the infamous series would have ended. But Stefano Guidotti headed in injury time as Lugano snatched a point from Letzigrund.

For FCZ it was the eleventh game without a win in all competitions (10 in the Super League, one in the Swiss Cup). In the championship, the Zurich team could expect complete success on July 4 (2-0 against Servette). If 3 points do not appear again in Lausanne, that would mean a new negative club record: there were more than 11 Superliga matches in a row without a victory under the leadership of coaches Massimo Rizzo and Sami Hyypiä from August to November 2015 in the last unsuccessful Phase no.

How much longer can Magnin?

On Saturday, coach Ludovic Magnin and his players must avoid this misfortune. It’s not every day that the former national player is still allowed to wield the Zurich scepter. The club’s president, Ancillo Canepa, has never shown so much patience with a coach. After 7 games without a win at the latest, the coach had to clear the locker!

Magnin is still confident that he can turn things around. Against Lugano “they showed a very good football performance and dominated the game,” he said confidently after the 2-2 draw against Ticino. It is no longer far from a liberation.

In Vaud it should be so far away on Saturday. Newcomers Lausanne started the season convincingly with 4 points from 2 games. It shouldn’t be easy for FCZ, even if the opponent lacks a major offensive force (17 goals last season) after Andi Zeqiri’s departure to Brighton & Hove Albion.
