FC Aarau, who started the season almost flawlessly, put in a performance to forget in Bellinzona. Michael Gonçalves, Armando Sadiku, Aaron Rey and Jonatan Mayorga scored to give the Ticino side a 4-0 lead at the break, who had previously only won in the cup against fourth-division side SC Nebikon this season.

Willy Vogt, who had shone with three assists in the first half, scored after 59 minutes to make it 5-0. Bellinzona thus scored as many goals in just under an hour against FCA as they had previously in twelve rounds or 18 hours of play.
