Superliga, 5. runda Wild Wildes 4:3 Thun pokazuje majstorsko lice i pobjeđuje u St. Gallenu

FC Vaduz secured their first victory of the season with a commanding 5–2 win over Grasshoppers Zurich at the Rheinpark Stadium on August 30, 2026. The Liechtenstein side dominated the second half, leaving the visitors with little opportunity to respond. The match was marked by high intensity and numerous goals, with both teams showcasing attacking prowess throughout the game. The first half saw Grasshoppers twice equalize, despite being behind early in the contest. In the 12th minute, YB loanee Lutfi Dalipi fired a long-range shot into the net, giving Vaduz the lead. However, Grasshoppers quickly responded, with Young-Jun Lee scoring from a well-worked move in the 35th minute to restore parity. Just three minutes later, Dominik Schwizer headed home a corner kick from close range, putting Vaduz back in front. The visitors again drew level in the 45th minute plus two seconds, as Amir Abrashi delivered a cross for Nikolas Muci to score. Vaduz took control after halftime, with the hosts showing relentless pressure. In the 55th minute, Milos Cocic went down in the penalty area, and referee Logan Berchier awarded a spot-kick. Schwizer converted the penalty, extending Vaduz’s advantage. Three minutes later, Juan Cabrera added another goal, making it 4–2. Despite a late effort from Grasshoppers, who scored a disallowed goal due to offside, Vaduz maintained their lead and sealed the win in the 76th minute through Cabrera’s header. The result left Grasshoppers as the only unbeaten team in the league, though they have played one fewer match than Vaduz. With the loss, Grasshoppers dropped to 11th place in the standings, while Vaduz climbed further up the table. The match was officiated by Logan Berchier, who faced some controversy in the first half when he denied a penalty to Grasshoppers following a challenge on Muci. This decision sparked debate among fans, but the overall performance of Vaduz in the second half was largely uncontested. Elsewhere in the league, FC Thun celebrated a dramatic 4–3 victory over St. Gallen in a tightly contested match.
