There was no miracle for FC Sion at Pontaise. In front of 10,754 spectators, the Valaisans lost 4-2 once morest Stade-Lausanne-Ouchy in the second leg of the play-off and are therefore relegated to the Challenge League.
This success does not suffer any discussion. The Stadistes led twice thanks to Liridon Mulaj (6th) and Alban Ajdini (34th) before winning the bet thanks to a real gem from Teddy Okou in the 81st minute. The 4-2 from the 89th signed Mulaj sealed the score and the hopes of a sinking FC Sion.
The SLO will therefore discover the Super League for the first time in its history. The Vaudois club, born in 2001 from the merger of FC Stade Lausanne and FC Ouchy, was still playing in the 2nd Interregional League (5th division) in 2014 before chaining promotions.
Many open questions
Of the 4 Lausanne successes of the evening, the shortcomings of the Sedun defense proved to be garish. Luca Zuffi’s goal in the 23rd (1-1) and Anto Grgic’s penalty in the 39th (2-2) only kept a tiny flame alive for Valaisans who did not give the feeling of believing to their improbable ascent.

This third sporting relegation following those of 1969 and 1999 opens many questions for Sion. Will Christian Constantin have the will to leave for a turn if he actually retires from the presidency next year, or will he anticipate his departure in the coming weeks?
Unless the Sédunois president engages, as he announced, in a legal battle which will add nothing to his glory or that of French-speaking football? Summer promises to be hot in Valais.

A disastrous sports policy
The relegation of FC Sion, which occurs following 17 seasons within the elite, punishes a sports policy conducted too often once morest common sense. With hindsight, Mario Balotelli’s engagement last August was madness. Super Mario almost never lived up to expectations. The waltz of the coaches to see Paolo Tramezzani start and end this disastrous championship is something laughable. The totomat sometimes has a good back…
Zurich: return of Reichmuth and Wallner
FC Zurich have terminated the loans of Nils Reichmuth and Silvan Wallner. The midfielder and centre-back are back from their time at Wil in the Challenge League. The two 21-year-olds hail from FCZ’s youth movement and have already played Super League matches with Zurich before playing in eastern Switzerland.
