Lausanne brings a good Lucerne point

- Jackson Avery

Lausanne-Sport is still well engaged in the fight for Europe, three days before the end of the season. But the struggle will be intense, evidenced by this 1-1 draw conceded Sunday in Lucerne, which only has the effect of freezing the positions before the game.

As it stands, the LS is still sixth. But with a delay in Lucerne and Lugano, the fourth place (even the podium) is still a very current objective. Even if at Swissporarena, Lausanne might have hoped to win a bigger batch.

Because Kaly Sène, who had already lacked the quarter of the quarter of an hour, had opened the scoring at 59th minute. He took advantage of a KoiveDi number in mid-terrain, which shifted Okou whose acceleration and the center back for the new number of LS were going to be decisive.

It would have been good that the Vaudois manage to hold this positive score, they who several times shot on Sunday (like this face-to-face in a closed angle missed by Oviedo in the 87th). But we must also recognize a certain activity that Lucerne. There, Lausanne was able to count on a very present Karlo Letica. And when the Croatian goalkeeper was not, as on this great inspiration from Klidje just before the break, with a lob ten meters from the goals, the bar was there to save Lausanne.

Letica, on the other hand, was too short in the 81st minute, when Rrudhani launched in the Adrian Grbic surface, whose hook was going around the Lausanne goalkeeper, before the Austrian striker finished in the empty goal. There was, all the same, a form of logic given the distribution of forces.

In this context, it should above all be suggested that these two teams, with Lugano, will be one of the last places for European cuts. Without forgetting that the 5th row will only be qualifying if FC Basel beats Bienne during the final of the Swiss Cup on June 1. But that will not yet be known at the end of the Super League on May 24. So you might as well aim for 4th place.
