Servette Chênois Thun chronicle of the match
There were some tense moments during the game, with opponents destined for relegation, putting up a dogged defense. However, the determination of Geneva’s players prevailed, breaking through the opponent’s resistance in the second half with four goals that turned the game into a true show of strength. Prominent among the protagonists were the performances of Imane Saoud and Cassandra Korhonen, the latter scoring a double, who helped consolidate the result.
This success of Servette not the only one but represents the culmination of a season dominated by the talent and cohesion of the team, regardless of the technical leadership, which this year has seen alternating Eric Sévérac and Jose Barcala. Servette Chênois’ consistent excellence has underscored their ability to maintain continuity of top performance despite changes in technical leadership and the introduction of the play-off system three years ago.
Play-off Axa Womens Super League
The real test, however, looms in the playoffs, where Servette Chênois will have to confirm its worth against fierce opponents, including FC Zurich, winner of the last two editions. The play-off formula, adopted to decide the team that will represent Switzerland in the Women’s Champions League, is an additional obstacle for the Grenadines, who, despite winning the regular season, will have to fight for the outright title and a place in Europe.
The situation in Swiss women’s soccer, with only one Champions League spot available, further raises the stakes, making the playoffs a must for Servette. The goal is clear: in addition to confirming domestic supremacy, the Geneva-based team aims to redeem itself on the European stage, where a playoff victory could open the door to new and ambitious international challenges.
