New Pod: Swiss Stadia Ep 4 - SC Cham and Football in Zug
Cham's victory over Lugano in the 1st Round (along with Zug 94's progression) inspired me to release a pod I had written a few months ago, but hadn't released. You can listen on all the platforms linked in my bio.

Thomas Häberli fired by Servette after a poor start to the season. 0 points in the league and out of the Champions League qualifiers.
Harsh, given that the season has only just started + the loss of players like Kutesa and Crivelli, but Servette are an ambitious club.
Question is, who takes over?

Sion turn a 2-goal deficit around in the final 10 minutes to win the opening game of 25/26 2-3 in Zürich.
A Steven Zuber wonderstrike kicked things off, before a huge error in the FCZ backline allowed Sion an open goal to win the game in the 92nd minute.

Late late late shows in both games, as Kreuzlingen, located by the Bodensee (Lake Constance to you, perhaps) and Lausanne II head to the third tier.
A shame for YF Juventus of Zürich, but those are the breaks!

The 4th tier playoffs finish this evening, deciding which two sides will go up to the Promotion League.
The first game is between Grasshopper II and Kreuzlingen, while Young Fellows Juventus (yes, really) play Lausanne II.
Not to be biased, but I'm firmly behind the independent clubs here.

Every single side in the relegation fight is winning at half-time.
Currently, Winterthur - miraculously - would be the team to stay up, Yverdon would be down automatically, and GC would be back in the barrage games against Aarau.
Madness.

What a season for 18 year old Iman Beney, by the way.
8 League goals, becomes a fixture in the Nati, and then scores the penalty to win the title.

Huge congratulations to Young Boys, who took their second ever Women's Championship yesterday, beating GCZ 2-1 on the day, before winning the title on penalties.
Very tough on GC, but YB were - in my view - the rightful champions, having won the league before the playoffs.

Here's the current state of play at the bottom with one game to go, plus the final round of fixtures.
Both GC & Yverdon have to hope already-safe Sion bring some fight to Winterthur. Grasshoppers can stay up on goal difference, if needed, with a draw against SG, but Yverdon have to beat FCZ.

HUGE game in the Challenge League this evening.
FC Thun could wrap up the title & promotion with a win against FC Aarau, who - after drawing 7 games in a row - have fallen 8 points behind the leaders.
A draw would technically be enough, but if Aarau want to stay in the race, they have to win.
