FC Eda secured a much-needed victory after two consecutive losses, overcoming Dynamo Marta CF 2-1 in a tightly contested match. Played at Allmend in Bern, the home side’s determination to return to winning ways was evident from the start.
First Half:
The game began with FC Eda pressing high and creating early chances, particularly through Aron and Olli, who provided a constant threat down the flanks. Aron’s penetrating runs from the right and Olli’s movement from the left kept Dynamo Marta CF on the back foot. One of FC Eda’s best chances came when Reto found himself through on goal with a lofted ball over the defense. He attempted to chip the ball over the keeper, but his effort went just wide of the post.
As the half wore on, FC Eda began to lose momentum, allowing Dynamo Marta CF to settle into the match and defend more comfortably. Both sides went into halftime with the scoreline still goalless, but with a sense that more action was to come.
Second Half:
FC Eda came out rejuvenated after the break, quickly regaining their attacking edge. In the 51st minute, the breakthrough finally came. Haris picked up the ball on the left, cutting inside before unleashing a 30-meter shot that caught the Dynamo Marta keeper off his line, giving FC Eda the lead.
However, their advantage didn’t last long. Just 10 minutes later, Dynamo Marta CF hit back with a swift counter-attack, catching FC Eda off guard and leveling the score at 1-1.
FC Eda had another chance to go ahead in the 70th minute. Haris played a precise through ball to Reto, who dribbled past the Dynamo Marta keeper. However, he found himself too wide to take a clear shot on goal, and the chance slipped away.
Despite the missed opportunities, FC Eda persisted and was rewarded in the dying moments of the match. In the 90th minute, Aron played a perfectly weighted through ball to Zierski, who found himself one-on-one with the Dynamo Marta keeper. The goalkeeper fumbled the ball, allowing Zierski to tap into an empty net and seal the win for FC Eda.
This result brings FC Eda back to winning ways after two disappointing defeats. The intensity at the start of both halves was crucial to the success, and with this win, they’ll be hoping to build momentum as they move on to the next challenge.
