Relegated Yverdon suffered another setback in the 13th round of the Challenge League with a 2-2 draw at Neuchâtel Xamax.
After going behind early through Shkelqim Demhasaj (2'), the Vaud side took a 2-1 lead thanks to goals from Dejan Sorgic (30') and Antonio Marchesano (60'). However, substitute Koro Koné equalized for the hosts to make it 2:2 (79'). As a result, third-placed Yverdon remained winless for the third game in a row. The gap to leaders Aarau is now nine points with one more game to play.
Wil won 2:1 against Rapperswil-Jona and celebrated their first victory in their seventh away game of the season - the team had previously only picked up one point on foreign soil. Simone Rapp scored the decisive 2:1 for Wiler in stoppage time of the first half, after Rapperswil had equalized a minute earlier through Alexis Charveys (45').
In the 27th minute, Florian Kamberi failed to beat 19-year-old Wiler goalkeeper Gentrit Muslija with a penalty. One minute later, Edis Bytyqi made it 1:0 for the visitors. Rapperswil-Jona not only failed to make their debut under new coach Selcuk Sasivari, but also dropped to second-last place behind Wil.
No goals were scored in the match between Stade Nyonnais and Etoile Carouge. As a result, the second duel of the season between these two teams also ended in a draw.
