The third of the seven challenges in the tournament to stay in the National League B shows a very inspired FC Lugano Femminile. The bianconere impose themselves with a five-goal gap on Oerlikon/Polizei, without conceding any.
ROCKET START AND NASTINESS UNDER THE GOAL
At the Neudorf ground in Zurich, the girls led by Giorgio Fransioli put in the top gear - in the end, it will be the fifth as the 5-0 at the triple whistle - from the first moments of the game. After finding the initial point through Anaïs Fragnito (19′), the guests had to wait until the end of the fraction to extend the lead. Between 44′ and the fourth minute of recovery, Sabina Di Muro and Teresa Penzo brought the score to zero to three. In the second half, knowing that for the Tigurines it was almost a "last resort," the music does not change. The control of operations is an HCL constant and the nastiness under goal allows Giorgia Zanaboni (60′) and again Fragnito (penalty at 79′) to definitely increase the day's haul. In addition to the result, the group thus launches some nice signals in view of the last appointments of the season.
THE ADVANTAGE ON THE LINE BECOMES IMPORTANT
Thanks to these three points won with strength, quality and character, the Ticinese retain their fifth place in the standings, but climb to 25 points and increase their lead over Wil (narrowly beaten 1-0 in Sion) and Oerlikon/Polizei, now both four lengths apart.
THE NEXT CHALLENGE STILL BEYOND THE GOTTHARD
On Sunday, May 4, 2025, starting at 4:30 p.m., FC Lugano Women's will be engaged at the Lidl Sportpark Bergholz in Wil against the St. Gallen headers in the fourth last engagement of the season.
COACH FRANSIOLI'S END-OF-GAME ANALYSIS: "PROUD OF THE GIRLS"
"On this occasion, I can safely say that there were about 40 of us on the field, including people who were present at the camp and those who through messages of affection towards the girls were close to us. This gave us a huge hand. I am really proud of the group. We needed this kind of success. I have been saying for a long time that we need to find our way to the net more consistently, and this time the girls were rewarded by the hard work they do on a daily basis. Now we are looking forward to another trip to Wil, where we will experience important new emotions, also because we will take the field a few moments after the conclusion of the St. Gallen Challenge League team's match".
