FC Zurich never runs the risk of losing at the start of the season against promoted Yverdon, the guests were too inconspicuous and the coordination problems in a newly formed team are too obvious.
Brecher in the FCZ-Goal experiences a quiet Sunday afternoon in the Letzigrund. At the front, Okita (27th minute) and Katic (54th) headed twice for cheering for the home team – an all-round confident start to the season for Bo Herriksen’s team.
After a cautious start, the FCZ comes into play better and better after about a quarter of an hour, knows how to use the spaces on the outer lanes better and comes to good conclusions. One of those shots landed on the head of Okita in the 27th minute, who successfully converted Rohner’s cross from the right. From this point on, the FCZ plays dominantly, has a lot of ball possession and does not let up. In the 54th minute, Katic increased after Guerrero’s corner kick and Conde’s extension to make it 2-0 – again with a header. After that, the FCZ takes some of the pace out of the game, but never runs the risk of having to accept the goal. So the start succeeds with three points, two goals and without conceding a goal.
Two players before the departure
Fidan Aliti and Aiyegun Tosin were not in the squad against Yverdon. Both players are about to leave, as Bo Henriksen said in a TV interview before the game. Tosin is said to be close to a move to France’s Ligue 1 side Lorient. The departure of his top scorer from last season left a big gap for the people of Zurich. Aliti was also a regular at FCZ last season.
The game is over, the FCZ wins confidently.
Again Krasniqi, another flick with the right – and again Martin is there in the goal. Corner FCZ.
Rapid counterattack by FCZ: Avdijaj long and high on Okita, who has difficulty controlling the ball so that the guests’ defense can block it.
Four minutes of stoppage time are indicated.
Conde leaves the FCZ, Hornschuh is now playing in the headquarters.
Five minutes plus stoppage time: everything looks like a sovereign victory for the favorites. Even after the changes, there is no danger from Yverdon’s offensive.
A shot by Krasniqi flies just inches past Yverdon’s goal. The individual action would have deserved a goal.
The Letzigrund cheered for a third time, but Avdijaj’s goal was immediately canceled because it was offside. Correct decision of the judges.
Another double change for the guests: Vishi and Alves come on for Rodrigues and Beyer.
Carlos down, Katic down. The two collide in the FCZ penalty area. Wolfensberger, who has delivered a sovereign performance so far, decides to kick FCZ.
Finished from the edge of the penalty area by Yverdon’s Tasar, Katic can clear.
The game slows down a quarter of an hour before the end: FCZ doesn’t have to, Yverdon can’t.
Okita’s showpiece is unsuccessful, his side puller does not end up in the goal.
Avdijaj can run towards the defense with speed, but his finish is cleared at the last second for a corner.
If I were Yverdon’s coach, I would be working hard on the corner kicks from Monday. You can hardly act less dangerously than the guests after the corner.
And FCZ also makes two changes: Rohner and Afriyie have to go down, Krasniqi and Avdijaj come in.
Double change at Yverdon: Lusuena and Klepac are leaving, Tasar and Corness are new.
After the corner, Afriyie finishes from a distance. This flies past the gate on the right.
Guerrero crosses to Afriyie, who hits the ball with his head, but Martin is on his guard. Starke clarified by the keeper. corner FCZ.
