The miracle did not take place for Servette and its coach Jocelyn Gourvennec during the 3rd round of qualifying for the Europa League. The garnet, 3-1 defeated last week at the Geneva stadium, lost 2-1 in the Netherlands. Timothe Cognat and his teammates will therefore play a Conference League dam next week.
Jocelyn Gourvennec did not succeed in a miracle for his first on the bench of Servette. The French technician and his team were released by Utrecht in the 3rd qualifying round of the Europa League.
The handicap suffered during the 3-1 defeat on the outward journey was, as could be expected, proven insurmountable. The return concluded with a 2-1 success of Utrecht thanks to a double of Jensen (57th/74th). Jallow saved the honorary honor on a penalty (80th).
Never have the Servettiens have given the impression of being able to overthrow the table. They were very shy on the offensive level. The Dutch were generally more dangerous, but they often lacked precision in the last gesture.
After failing during the qualifications of the Champions League and then the Europa League, Servette will still have a chance to play a European Cup this fall. To do this, it will be necessary to win in the Conference League playoff against the Shakhtar Donetsk.
