A POINT WORTH EUROPE
Lugano finished the Super League championship in fourth place and won the right to participate in the Conference or Europa League preliminaries in July. The decisive point came at the end of a good performance against YB. Match in which Croci-Torti's team, in addition to scoring a goal, made [...]
CROSSES-TORTS: "THE TEAM PUT THEIR HEART INTO IT"
Since 2015 Lugano and Lausanne have faced each other 24 times but on only two occasions have they drawn and always in Cornaredo. The one that came out on Sunday is therefore the first tie result on Vaud soil in 14 matches to date. A more than deserved 1-1 for a team that was coming from two difficult matches and [...]
VALUABLE POINT WON IN LAUSANNE
Perhaps the most important point of the season the one Lugano won Sunday afternoon in Lausanne, in the second away game in three days in the land of Romandy. After recovering the Vaudois' early lead, Croci-Torti's boys calmly controlled and brought home the draw. In the standings, with one day left [...]
LUGANO ALSO WITHOUT LUCK IN GENEVA
Another lucky game for Lugano, which returned from Geneva without points, with four goals to its credit (an own goal and a penalty) and especially with four balls that were well kicked into the net but did not go in due to miraculous interventions by the opponent's goalkeeper or saves on the line. ONE AUTOGOL PER PART The balance reigned throughout [...]
SHAQIRI SHOW TO BEAT LUGANO
On the eve of the match, HCL coach Mattia Croci-Torti had called Shaqiri unfailing and a player who always makes a difference. On the field, the prediction punctually came true. After a balanced first half, indeed with Lugano coming out on top, King Xherdan took the throne and practically single-handedly dragged his team to the [...]
"WITH BASILEA ALWAYS PLAYED ON A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD"
Anticipation is growing for the challenge between Lugano and Basel (Saturday at 8:30 p.m. in Cornaredo) that could allow the Rhinelanders, depending also on the results of Servette on the field Sunday, to win the national title with three matches to spare. BOTTANI DISQUALIFIED The HCL players went through their finishing touches on Friday morning. They will certainly not be available [...]
"FACING TWO TEAMS WHO WANT TO WIN"

FC LUCERNE - FC LUGANO COUNTDOWN
For the second year, the Swiss champion title and the other places in the European Cups will be awarded at the end of a final round of five matches each. While five more days will decide the team relegated to the Challenge League and the one that will play a play-off against the second in the cadet league. MAY [...]
A POINT WORTH THE TITLE ROUND
With one day to go, Lugano is among the teams mathematically certain to contest the penalty shootout for the title. Drawing with St. Gallen on Sunday, the HCLers climbed to 49 in the standings and can no longer be joined by teams currently below the line. FEW SUCCESSES IN THE FIRST HALF The first half [...]
