SC Schwyz missed the win: 1-1 draw against Kriens II in the promotion game!

The eagerly awaited promotion game between SC Schwyz and SC Kriens II took place on June 16, 2025. The game at the Tschaibrunnen sports field ended in a 1-1 draw, which seemed more like a missed victory for the hosts from Schwyz. However, SC Schwyz remains in the race for promotion after successfully playing two previous games against Hochdorf and Eschenbach, as nau.ch reports.

The game was played in dry conditions and summer warmth on a bumpy pitch. Kriens showed his danger early in the game. A long-range shot hit the crossbar and the visitors took command. In the 12th minute, SC Schwyz had problems coordinating their defense, which ultimately led to a penalty, which Bonorva safely converted, giving Kriens the lead (0-1).

Turning point in the first half

But SC Schwyz did not allow themselves to be discouraged and looked for a way deeper. In the 32nd minute, Schmidiger equalized after a mistake by Kriens' central defender. We went into the half-time break with a fair 1:1. The second half was different; Schwyz dictated the game and had several top-class chances, which they were unable to take advantage of. Kriens, on the other hand, was unable to record another clear conclusion.

The draw leaves SC Schwyz with mixed feelings. Despite the unused opportunities and the strong pressure on the opposing defense, the team remains in the promotion race. As bote.ch adds, the result shows that Schwyzer deserved more, but we can now look forward to the next encounter even more.
