Again nothing! Lugano has now been unsuccessful in Letzigrund for four matches. In the top battle of Group D, the team from Ticino lost 1:3 to the traditional Belgian club Brugge – the first defeat in this Conference League campaign.
“The Letzig cattle simply do not bring us luck,” emphasizes Lugano captain Jonathan Sabbatini (35). Coach Mattia Croci-Torti (41) sounds the same: “Last year we always won here against FCZ. So far this season is not going as desired.”
Lugano starts well against Bruges. But after ex-FCB player Eder Balanta conceded a goal, the match ends. Lugano also has difficulty with the referee. Actually, red against Bruges striker Thiago would not have been wrong.
Croci-Torti does not give up hope
Shortly after the break, the Belgians hit a double play. But Lugano fights back. However, more than the target is not achieved. Instead, the decisive score was 1:3 shortly before the end.
“Let’s hope that Letzigrund will bring us more luck again on the last matchday against Besiktas,” says Croci-Torti. Before the Bianconeri play in Zurich again, there will be matches in Bruges for the first time in the group stage, and then the trip up north to Bodö/Glimt. The prospects for wintering in Europe are still good.
