Lannau Tigers beat Bern 2:1 in a club friendly match on 20 August 2026. The home side took all three points in front of their own supporters, closing a campaign of warm-weather fixtures with a victory. The result came after both teams had been testing their new systems through a series of pre-season games.
Tigers arrived seeking momentum after a mixed run of results. They had beaten Khur 5:3 in their most recent outing on 12 August, but losses to Zurich Lions and Bill had interrupted that flow. Bern came in with slightly steadier recent form, including a 5:4 win over La-Chaux-de-Fonds and a comfortable 4:0 victory against Bill.
The match itself produced a narrow outcome that reflected the competitive nature of both sides. Lannau Tigers managed to find the breakthrough twice, while Bern responded with a single goal of their own. It was a result that could have gone either way, with neither team able to pull clear for long periods.
By then, both managers were looking ahead rather than behind, using the friendly to assess squad depth and tactical options. The scoreline showed that the home side had been more clinical, but the away team had not been outplayed so much as second-best in the key moments.
The result leaves Lannau Tigers with a positive record in their recent friendlies, while Bern will take heart from not being beaten heavily despite the loss. Both teams now turn their attention to the competitive season ahead, with this fixture serving as one more step in their preparation.
