Winterthur did not continue. A week following their 3-2 success in St. Gallen, the newly promoted lost 2-1 at home to the Grasshoppers in a too quickly folded Zurich derby.
Souleymane Diaby shoulders a crushing responsibility for this defeat. Guilty of a recovery error on Christian Herc’s 1-0 in the 3rd minute, the Ivorian was sent off in the 22nd minute for a fault of last resort. The Grasshoppers exploited their numerical superiority to register the 2-0 just before the break by Renat Dadashov.
Always courageous, sometimes talented, the formation of Bruno Berner had the immense merit of not letting go despite the headwinds. Only, the penalty converted by Roman Buess in the 86th probably came too late.
This result is of course the business of FC Sion. If successful on Sunday in Lugano, the Sédunois would leave Winterthur at four points.
