12.22.2020

YB wins the 14th round main game behind St. Gallen 2: 1. Jordan Siebatcheu scores the master with two headed goals for the win. For now, YB is eight points ahead of the competition.

“Of all things.” This expression is preferred in sports reports. On Tuesday, in the maximum game of the Super League, he fit in again very well. So: Silvan Hefti, of all people, who had switched from St. Gallen to the Young Boys in the summer not without background noise, hit the perfect cross in the 68th minute, which forward Jordan Siebatcheu refined to 1-0 for YB at the first suit.

It was the moment that allowed an even game to overturn against the favorites. The first goal conceded after exactly 400 minutes threw the St. Gallen defense, so strong this fall, for minutes. And soon it was four minutes later after a hesitant intervention by two St. Gallen on the right side and a positional error by defender Yannis Letard in the middle 0: 2 from the point of view of Eastern Switzerland. Again the center came from the right, this time from Meschack Elia, and again Siebatcheu headed the ball into the goal.

St. Gallen threatens to fall in midfield

It was the goals that caused a turning point at the top of the Super League on the last day of the year. At least in regards to the relationship between St. Gallen and the Young Boys, the top two teams of the 2020 calendar year. St. Gallen was YB’s first challenger before round 14, now threatening Wednesday when the remaining matches of the day. he will even slide to the bottom half of the table, now eight points behind the Young Boys.

In eastern Switzerland they don’t get nervous about it. «We play against the champion, the leader, against a team that spends the winter in the European Cup. We are clearly the losers and we don’t want to classify anything bad, ”said St. Gallen President Matthias Hüppi at half-time. Then he saw his team “at eye level” with the favorite.

In fact, St. Gallen was practically the same in the 90 minutes, because for the most part he defended in an orderly manner and had one or another opportunity up front. In the end, St. Gallen’s first goal came too late after 292 minutes. Tim Staubli made an exciting final phase with his first goal in the Super League in the 83rd minute, but it was no longer a change of course.

The Young Boys were narrowly successful because they showed patience against the sometimes very short St. Gallen. It is unusual for her to be able to count her scoring scenes on the fingers of one hand. But if there is a 2: 1 win at the end with a shooting ratio of 10:14, this reveals the efficiency of the Bernese. You only scored 20 goals in the first 13 games of the season, but you earned 28 points.
