Severette-Xamax Before only 6'127 fans (smallest crowd at Stade de Genève), Servette FC tied (0-0) Neuchâtel Xamax. It seems that the crowd was not too happy with the defensive style of play introduced by Adrian Ursea since his arrival. At the end of the game, there were cat calls, and lots of what the article describes as unhappy whistles. Needless to say this was not a good turnout for Servette, it seems the novelty of a new stadium has dissapeared very quickly. I hate to see how many they get for Thun or Wil. Servette - NE Xamax 0:0 Genève, 6'127 Fans Yellow Cards: 8. Simo 14. Londono 27. Wiederkehr 40 R. Bättig 45. Comisetti 72. Mangane 91. Cravero Wil-YB Young Boys win with a 89th minute goal from Johan Berisha, his 12th of the year. This puts them in command of the third position with Xamax drawing with SFC. Wil - Young Boys 0:1 (0:0) Goals: 89. J. Berisha (Sermeter) 0:1. Bergholz, 2'681 Fans Yellow Cards: 11. Romano 33. A. Eugster 55. Hasler 66. Sermeter
Here are the two games from sunday: Thun - Grasshopper 1:2 (0:1) From the reports of the game, GCZ won with much less tension than Basel. Two fine goals from Petric, one chip of the keeper off a nice cross and the other scored on a high header over the keeper. Goals: 9. Petric (Nuñez) 0:1 55. Renfer (penalty) 1:1 68. Petric (Gerber) 1:2. Lachen, 4'200 Fans Yellow Cards: 37. Deumi 57. Ferreira 59. Spycher 82. Barijho Zürich - Basel 1:2 (0:1) From the reports, it seems that Basel were lucky to get away with three points. Playing without H. Yakin, and Cantaluppi, FC Zurich played an inspired game for their new trainer. A late Basel goal, kept leaders GCZ in view. A draw would have dropped them 6 points back with 9 games to play. Goals:: 23. Rossi (Huggel) 0:1 49. Guerrero (Chihab) 1:1 87. Huggel (Atouba) 1:2. Letzigrund, 13'500 Fans Yellow Cards: 86. Chihab 89. Bastida 92. Atouba (Foul / jeu dur).
