Di match begin around 7pm on Monday, 7th April 2026. From di liveticker wey Aargauer Zeitung dey run, e clear say Aarau no dey sharp. Dem describe di team performance as “blutleerer, zögerlicher Auftritt”—meaning dem dey play like person wey no get blood, just dey hesitate. Almost nothing wey dem try dey work. Even di commentator talk say if dem no improve sharp sharp, dem go just give di three points to di visitors from Geneva area.
And true true, by di 23rd minute, Etoile Carouge don score. Aarau dey play better team, but dem just con dey concede goal. Dis one come surprise many pipo wey dey follow di game. Di commentator talk say dis kind thing don happen before when dem play against Rapperswil-Jona wey dem con collect four goals.
For di first half, e end with Aarau dey down 1-0. Di second half begin, but e no change much. Di Aarau players dey try, but dem dey make mistakes. One time, Schaffran play dangerous pass from back go give Dantas Fernandes, but one Tessiner player intercept am. Small thing wey fit cause another goal.
Meanwhile, for another match wey dey hold same time, FC Vaduz dey write history. Dem dey play against Bellinzona, and di Vaduz boys dey show say dem no dey joke for their home ground. Marcel Monsberger score two goals from corner kicks—one early for di game make am 1-0, den another one later make am 2-0. Di second goal na real beauty: ball come from corner, go reach Simani, den Monsberger collect am and shoot without wasting time. Top goal!
Di commentator talk say Vaduz don equal home points record for one season wey FC St.Gallen set for 2008/2009 and AC Bellinzona set for 2007/2008. But with di next point wey dem gain, Vaduz go break dat record and hold am alone. As at now, Vaduz na di only team for dis season wey never lose for home. Dem don collect plenty points after 28 games—another record for di club history.
Back to Aarau match, e still dey go. Di game reach one hour mark, but Aarau still dey struggle. Di commentator mention say dem need “deutliche Leistungssteigerung”—meaning serious improvement—if dem no want give di points to Carouge. Di players dey try, but di coordination no dey. One chance come when Rey play ball from side enter di five-meter box, but both friend and enemy miss am. Hasler clear am for corner, and dat corner nearly result to goal when Rossiert head am from short distance but e go beside di post.
For di Vaduz match, small injury wahala happen. Schwizer and Trapero collide inside Bellinzona penalty area and dem need treatment. But di two players continue after. Di game dey flow well for Vaduz, with dem controlling di midfield and creating chances. Vogt nearly score after Vaduz defender make mistake, but ball hit di post. Lucky escape for Bellinzona.
Other matches wey dey hold for di 29th round include Stade Lausanne vs Rapperswil and Wil vs Xamax. Yesterday, Stade Nyonnais don lose 1-4 to Yverdon. Yverdon still dey have mathematical chance to catch up with Vaduz and Aarau, but with every win from Aarau and Vaduz, e dey become more like miracle wey dem need.
