Owusu’s late double turns St Gallen’s comeback into a European boost
Under the bright lights of Liechtenstein, Italian‑Ghanaian forward Enoch Owusu delivered a decisive brace in the final minutes, sealing a 3-2 comeback for St Gallen against FC Vaduz in a pulsating Super League encounter and clinching all three points for the visitors.
The visitors struck first through Aliou Balde in the opening minute, giving St Gallen an early advantage and setting the tone for a lively contest.
FC Vaduz responded quickly when Juan Cabrera’s close‑range finish put the home side briefly ahead, restoring balance before the match swung back in St Gallen’s favour.
The 21‑year‑old Enoch Owusu entered from the bench and immediately made an impact, pulling St Gallen level with a fine strike from distance in the 72nd minute, showcasing his attacking instinct and composure in the final third.
Owusu then struck again in the 87th minute, curling a right‑footed effort into the bottom corner to seal the three points for the away side, underscoring his decisive influence on the outcome.
The pulsating Super League encounter under the bright lights of Liechtenstein saw St Gallen edge FC Vaduz 3-2, a comeback that highlighted the visitors’ resilience.
St Gallen will now turn their attention to Europe, where they face FC Sheriff in UEFA Conference League qualification on August 6.
The win provides momentum at a crucial juncture in their campaign, reinforces their push for European qualification, and could boost Owusu’s case for a larger role in the squad.
