LAUSANNE, Switzerland (Interstat) — Lausanne Sport opened its domestic campaign with a 2-1 victory over Winterthur in Swiss Super League play Saturday at Stade de la Tuilière, overcoming an early deficit with two second-half goals to secure the win.

The match, played on April 4, 2026, saw the visiting side take a surprising lead just before halftime. Winterthur forward Omar Janneh found the net in the first minute of stoppage time, capitalizing on a defensive lapse to give his team a 1-0 advantage at the break.

Lausanne Sport emerged from the interval with increased urgency and found its equalizer in the 67th minute. Defender Sékou Fofana, pushing forward, leveled the score with a well-taken finish. Fofana then turned provider for the decisive goal just minutes later, setting up substitute Luca Zuffi, who had entered the match in the second half. Zuffi’s clinical strike completed the comeback and gave the home side a lead it would not relinquish.

The result aligned with the pre-match projections from Interstat, whose game simulator had predicted a 2-1 victory for Lausanne Sport. The organization’s ELO rating system had given the home side a 92 percent probability of winning.

Discipline played a minor role in the contest, with only one caution issued. Lausanne Sport’s goal-scorer, Sékou Fofana, received a yellow card in the 55th minute for a tactical foul.

With the victory, Lausanne Sport begins its Super League season with a perfect record of one win and zero losses. The club’s overall record across all competitions also stands at one win and zero losses. Winterthur, meanwhile, starts its league campaign with a record of zero wins and one loss, mirroring its overall record for the season.

The match showcased a pivotal performance from Lausanne Sport’s Sékou Fofana, who directly contributed to both of his team’s goals with a score and an assist. His influence from the back line proved instrumental in overturning the halftime deficit. Winterthur’s Omar Janneh provided the early highlight for the visitors with his first-half goal.

The three points earned at home provide a positive start for Lausanne Sport as it looks to build momentum in the early phase of the Swiss top-flight season. Winterthur will aim to regroup after a narrow defeat in a match where it held an early lead but ultimately could not contain the home side’s second-half response.
