The Young supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host CFR Cluj in Europa League and win 2-1. In the game before, an away victory in the Super League match versus Luzern with a 3-2 scoreline.

Jean-Pierre Nsame was sent off in the CFR Cluj game, in the 90th minute when Young were losing. Miraculously the team were able to turn the game around despite the red card, winning 2-1 in the end. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of G. Seoane when Gianluca Gaudino scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 59th minute. A late climax in the match against CFR Cluj as the winning goal came six minutes into overtime; scored by Gianluca Gaudino.
