These are the comments about the magical YB evening: Many Berners were convincing, two were weak

The start is a horror show: with his poor pass straight into Ivanic’s feet, he sets up Ndiaye’s best chance, which the Geneva native then destroys himself. Then excellent. Except with your foot…

Strong homegrown game. The highlight is of course the 2-0, which Blum scored with the kind help of goalkeeper Glazer from the Israeli national team. Beautiful chip cross at Niasse.

Not a big mistake. Cautious defensive protector. And the 2-0 starts at the corner of the opponent’s penalty area with a brutal dribble.

At the heart of the first YB goal when he is forgotten at the far post. But also from two top chances from Red Star. Therefore the balance is mixed.

The left back also made one or two bad passes. Deadly if you give it time to cross. But Nsame does nothing with the native Portuguese’s pot flank.

Unremarkable play by the defending king, who suddenly heads towards the goal in a very dangerous manner. And if a six isn’t particularly noticeable, it usually means: Good roar, lion!

He was hardly seen. An energetic rush, yes. But also a terrible shift in play in the middle of their own half of the field. And that in the 45th minute.

The same applies to him as to Monteiro: it is simply not visible enough. Except for the corner kick, which makes it 2-0. However, the corner is two crucial touches away from the crowning finale. I had to go out during the break with pain in my right ankle.

Even at the seventh attempt, the best YB goalscorer of the modern era did not score for the first time in the premier class. He has never been so close to a goal. That was the case with his strong header in the 21st minute, but especially with the one in the 72nd minute. A player with his reputation can score the goal.

Strong start. Always in a hurry with promising prospects. For those who want to take that for granted: statistically speaking, he is, together with goalkeeper Racioppi, the second best Bernese player behind Blum.

Incredible run (he goes through the man’s right, the ball to the left) before Nsame’s beautiful header. That was in the first half, but after the break he was stronger. There is always a small armada of defenders on duty.

Came on at halftime for Mannetjes. Has one or two dangerous actions. But above all, he gives of himself unconditionally. Something exciting is growing there.

Nsame came on in the 74th minute. Short-term assignment that cannot be assessed.

Monteiro came on in the 74th minute. Short-term assignment that cannot be assessed.
