32 teams, 54 goals - this round of the Schweizer Pokal / Coupe de Suisse / Swiss Cup was always going to be CHAOTISCH!There were 5x ties which pitted Super League opponents against Challenge League opposition - and some big names fell: Servette, St Gallen, and Lugano were all vanquished, in surprising fashion. Also - what's that ruining the party? Why, it's five teams from way down the Swiss football lader! Bavois, Bulle, Linth, Beroche-Gorgier, and Raperswil-Jona all majestically emerged victorious.There's also a last-minute goal-scoring debut for "St Seydou", back in Swiss football with Sion, in contentious circumstances - lovely stuff!Elsewhere, there were, of course, routine victories for FC Basel, Young Boys, and Luzern against lesser opposition.It's holiday time at Swissball HQ: We'll be back on Monday 7 October, with the usual weekly round-up of domestic football - in the meantime, keep an eye out for the transfer special, hitting your streams next week!As always, swissballpod@gmail.com with queries / questions / suggestions!
