FCZ win 289th derby Gbamin and Krasniqi fire FC Zurich to victory against the Grasshoppers

FC Zurich take another step towards the championship round in the Zurich derby with a 2:1 win against GC and keep up with the best.

In the 289th clash between Zurich's best football clubs, the superior FC Zurich were still a little shaky. Partly because Ricardo Moniz's team were unable to score a third goal, GC got back into the game with a 2-1 draw through Adama Bojang in the 82nd minute. The Grasshoppers even came close to equalizing after that.

A point would have been a good reward for GC in view of the very late offensive sign of life. FC Zurich were much more active for most of the game and failed to beat GC keeper Justin Hammel several times before Jean-Philippe Gbamin scored his first goal for FCZ seconds before the break - after a small mistake by Hammel, who had been impeccable until then. The goalkeeper was powerless to prevent the second goal. Bledian Krasniqi scored with a precise header in the 69th minute.

Zurich can continue to dream of the championship title; with a five-point lead over seventh-placed Lausanne-Sport, their place in the championship round is more secure than ever. GC, on the other hand, like Winterthur and Yverdon, have already been confirmed as participants in the relegation round.

⭐️ Man of the Match: Bledian Krasniqi

FCZ's home-grown player decides the Zurich city derby with his 5th goal of the season with a header and is rightly celebrated as the match winner.
