Grasshopper Club Zürich beat FC St. Gallen 1879 2-0 in the Super League, taking their chances where it mattered. St Gallen had the lion's share of possession but could not find a way through.
Amir Abrashi put Grasshopper ahead in the 36th minute, and Young-Jun Lee doubled the lead in the 69th. The home side kept their shape and turned the game when Lee struck, giving themselves a comfortable cushion.
Despite having only 43% possession to St Gallen's 57%, Grasshopper registered 22 shots, eight on target, and an expected-goals total of 2.23. They were out-passed and out-cornered, yet carried the greater threat where it counted.
