For their first home outing of the season, at Trois-Chêne, the Grenat outclassed YB by a score of 3 to 0!

5 years, 2 months and 23 days, in other words the time that separated the Servettiennes’ last match at Trois-Chênes from the match this Saturday, August 24 against YB. More than 5 years ago, the Genevans said goodbye to Trois-Chêne by winning 1 to 0 against FC Basel for the last match of their first season in the NLA. 1911 days later, Jose Barcala’s players made a resounding return to this stadium by overcoming YB by a score of 3 to 0.

However, nothing was that simple. Even if the score seems to suggest it. The Grenat showed themselves to be dangerous from the outset by obtaining two consecutive corners after a few minutes of play. Imène El Ghazouani even had the opening goal with her foot but her deflection only grazed the Bernese post. Failing to score, our number 10 assisted Korhonen in the 23rd minute of play for the Servettian opening goal! She was imitated shortly before tea by Marchão who unleashed a majestic strike from outside the area. Her special! Between the two Servettian goals, the Bernese found Bottega’s post. To the great relief of the Trois-Chêne.

After the break, the Servettians quickly went for the third goal. El Ghazouani, still at work, passed to Tufo who served Mauron on a silver platter. The safety goal was scored. The end of the match will be more controlled by the new residents of Trois-Chêne without YB being able to reduce the score despite the efforts provided.

Thanks to their second victory of the season, Servette FCCF moves up to 4th place in the ranking, tied on points with FC Basel.
