Match Overview

From the first whistle, Chenois took control of midfield and pressed high, forcing errors from the Echallens defence. The home side scored twice in each half, with clinical finishing and excellent set‑piece delivery proving the difference. Echallens rarely threatened the Chenois goal and struggled to hold possession for any sustained period.

First Half Domination

Chenois broke the deadlock in the 19th minute when a long throw‑in caused chaos in the box and was stabbed home from close range. The second goal arrived just before half‑time – a sweeping counter‑attack finished with a composed strike into the far corner. Echallens had no answer to the intensity of the hosts.

Second Half Seal

Chenois added a third in the 63rd minute from a brilliant free‑kick that curled over the wall and inside the post. The fourth came in the 78th minute after a corner was only half‑cleared, allowing a volley from the edge of the area that took a deflection past the helpless goalkeeper. The home supporters celebrated a comprehensive victory.

Standings Context

With this result, Chenois climb to fifth place in the Division 1 League table, now just three points off the promotion play-off spot with five matches remaining. Echallens stay in 16th position, seven points from safety, and look increasingly likely to face relegation unless form improves quickly.
