Match report
Wil 1900 and Arau played out a 2:2 draw in the Challenge League on Monday evening, with two penalties and a red card providing the drama. The hosts took an early lead through M. Dickenmann before S. Muller equalised from the spot for Arau. Y. Allou restored Wil's advantage after the break, but P. Weber's second penalty of the night ensured the points were shared.
And here's the thing about the opening exchanges — Wil pressed high and won it. Dickenmann's finish at five minutes caught Arau's defence sleeping, though the visitors responded quickly. Muller's penalty eleven minutes in came after a foul that shifted the momentum, and by then Arau had settled into their shape.
The second half brought another twist. Allou headed home at 54 minutes to put the home side ahead, but Weber stepped up from the spot six minutes later to level things again. Then came the moment that changed everything: Kaiba's red card at 78 minutes left Wil with nine men for the final ten minutes. They saw it out, though.
Wil dominated possession at 52 per cent and registered 124 attacks, but Arau's accuracy from distance told. The visitors took 14 shots to Wil's 15, yet their 42 per cent accuracy on target versus 32 per cent for the hosts showed who took their chances. Big chances created were 2-1 in Wil's favour, but the penalties levelled the equation.
The draw extended Wil's winless run to four matches without a victory, while Arau kept their unbeaten record intact. The hosts remain eighth with four points from five games, two behind seventh-placed Arau. A result that leaves both sides still searching for consistency.
