The Lausanne-Sport was beaten 2-1 on the lawn of the Vardar Skopje to the 2nd qualifying round go from Conference League. The Vaudois will have to reverse the steam next Thursday at home in the return match.
In the Skopje dampness, where the mercury indicated up to 35 degrees, the conditions were far from ideal for the actors. Lausanne-Sport took a long time to enter the match. Peter Zeidler’s team was dominated in the first period, before reacting next.
A head of Omeragic who came close to the LS post made a first thrill among the Vaud supporters (42nd). Then, in the stoppages, Mato was able to arise to open the scoring after a balloon pushed by Letica following a strike from Todorovski.
Upon recovery, the LS woke up and finally was dangerous. Lanted in depth, Sène saw his shot flirt with the post (46th). From the Fuente then targeted the stars while he was in excellent position (50th).
With a superb strike in the skylight, Diakité equalized and concretized the good period of the Lausannois (58th). In the process, Sène could have given visitors the advantage (61st). The Macedonians then resumed. Letica saved on Mato tests (66th/76th). Forgotten by the defense of the LS, Omeragic gave the advantage to the Vardar in the 78th.
