FCZ ended a run of five defeats, although the game could not have started worse for the hosts. After just 20 seconds, Lucerne were awarded a penalty, which Matteo Di Giusto converted safely. Julian Von Moos increased the lead to 2:0 for the visitors in the 43rd minute. However, Zurich fought their way back. In the 75th minute, Jahnoah Markelo reduced the deficit to 1:2 with a penalty, after which Matthias Phaeton (79') and Philippe Paulin Keny (92') also scored. Like Markelo, the latter scored from the penalty spot. Lucerne were down to ten players from the 74th minute onwards following a red card against Taisei Abe.
Grasshopper Club Zürich's match-winner in Winterthur was substitute Nikolas Muci, who scored the only goal of the game in the 92nd minute. Four minutes earlier, Andrin Hunziker's supposed 1:0 goal for Winterthur had been disallowed for offside following a VAR intervention. GC extended its lead over bottom-placed Winterthur to seven points thanks to the late victory. It was the record champions' first away win in the current championship.
