Sion has been a very good place for St. Gallen lately. The Eastern Switzerland team won all three previous matches in Valais with a goal difference of 14:2! But this season in the Challenge League has been good for Sion. The current team is a unit that cannot be disrupted by setbacks. This currently also applies to President Christian Constantine.

Sion needs a rest at the moment. After a promising start to the season, coach Didier Trot's side are on a seventh consecutive winless run at the top of the table. At least the home side have improved offensively this time around, having scored just one goal in their previous four games. St. Gallen goalkeeper Ati Zigi's first two shots were scored, both by Dejan Soljic (9/29), who has only succeeded once this season.
He made it 2-1 with St. Gallen's fifth goal of the season in the 15th minute after a good performance by St. Gallen. In the 84th minute, with Noah Yannick's wonderful long-range shot, the visiting team equalized the score for the second time. As a result, Sion tied the score 3-2, but Ziggy could no longer be defeated and saved Christian Sousa in the 89th minute.
Things came to a head in stoppage time when Sion sporting director Barthelemy Constantine rushed onto the pitch. Sion's goal did not count as the game had been interrupted due to a scramble in front of the home team's penalty area. Constantine saw the red card and Father Christian also participated in the discussion. Players from both teams, Fayulu and Gubers, received red cards.
While Sion drew for the fourth consecutive time in front of their home fans, St. Gallen, including the divisional league, remained winless for the sixth consecutive time.

Maybe when you take a walk, you feel just like me. If I see a pebble in front of me, it gets kicked forward. Sometimes there is a clear goal, sometimes as far as possible, sometimes the foot is “wrong” and sometimes there is no plan. Life is like a game and the world is like an arena.
