A miracle. The draw obtained 2-2 by FC Sion in Geneva against Servette FC in a derby of the Rhone followed by 14,592 spectators is good.
Led 2-0 in the 33rd and reduced to 10 in the 41st after the severe expulsion of Wylan Cyprien, Sion managed to equalize thanks, in a 1st time, to a success of Giovanni Sio (50th), following a huge blunder by Gaël Clichy, and an avoidable autogoal by David Douline in the 85th minute.
Not far from falling into its first annual crisis at the break, FC Sion returns to Valais with the feeling of having won this derby. It is true that this improbable comeback is akin to a victory. It also validates the coaching of Fabio Celestini with the introductions of Sio and Mario Balotelli at the break.

For the Servettians, the pill is bitter. They had the match in their hands before literally giving 2 goals to the opponent. Above all, they should have led more widely at the break. To the double of Chris Bedia could have been added 1 or 2 more goals. It is not known if the fireworks set off by FC Sion supporters during the 2 halves broke the momentum of the Genevans.
