Young Boys Women 3-2 Servette Chenoa Women
Young Boys Women took the points against Servette Chenoa Women 3-2 in the Nationalliga A, Regular Season round one. The result shifts Servette off the top of the table and leaves the hosts sitting fifth on four points.
W. Meister opened the scoring in the seventeenth minute, a moment that set the tone for the evening. Servette responded through P. Hernandez in the forty-fourth, and by then the match had settled into something more open than the pre-match form suggested.
And here's the thing about half-time: the game changed. S. Waeber found the net in the forty-sixth, and suddenly Young Boys were ahead again. That was the pattern of the night — Servette would respond, Young Boys would answer, and the lead kept moving.
N. Andonova restored Servette's advantage in the fifty-first minute, but Young Boys had another card to play. S. Waeber scored again in the sixty-second, and that was the goal that mattered. The third-minute margin held, and the clean-sheet run came to an end for Servette.
To be fair, both sides had shown enough in their recent form to suggest this wouldn't be straightforward. Servette had won two of their three league games before this, while Young Boys had lost their last outing against Basel Women. What happened on the pitch on August twenty-first didn't quite follow either trajectory.
Servette remain fourth on six points, but the gap is narrower now. Young Boys sit fifth with four points, and the difference between the two is one match played and one point. That's how the opening round feels — a result that says more about what's coming than what's already been decided.
