The Saturday match between Lugano and Young Boys was something special for the Slovenian national team striker. Žan Celar played his 100th match in the Lugano jersey, and he achieved something he hadn’t done before: he scored against the last remaining top-league opponent against whom he hadn’t found the net. Žan Celar broke this negative tradition and reached his 43rd goal for Lugano.
The thrilling match ended in a 3-3 draw, with the final goal scored by the former Maribor prospect.
The away team had a better start, taking the lead with a goal from Ebrime Colley in the eighth minute, and it seemed they would head into halftime with an advantage. However, Uran Bislimi equalized in injury time.
In the second half, the visitors from the capital again had a better start, with Joel Mvuka scoring their second lead in the 52nd minute. This time, the lead lasted for just over five minutes, as Kreshnik Hajrizi leveled the score again in the 56th minute. However, the visiting team quickly regained the lead through Filip Ugrinić.
It seemed that Lugano might not be able to equalize for the third time, but ten minutes before the end of the match, they were awarded a penalty. Seven minutes after a disallowed goal (not given due to a foul), Žan Celar converted the penalty, setting the final score of the match (3-3).
