FC Lausanne Sport delivered a dominant performance, coming away with a decisive 3-0 victory in the Swiss Cup against FC Winterthur. The away side's effectiveness in front of goal was a key differentiator; they found the back of the net twice in the first half, establishing a commanding lead. Lausanne's early goal, scored at just under 20 minutes, set the tone, while their second goal, scored right before halftime, effectively deflated Winterthur's morale.

The shooting efficiency further highlighted Lausanne's dominance, as they capitalized on their opportunities with clinical finishing. While both teams engaged in a decent amount of physical play, the away team kept their composure better, committing fewer fouls compared to Winterthur's six fouls. This helped Lausanne maintain control of the game's tempo and avoid unnecessary disruptions, thereby allowing their attacking players to play more freely.

In terms of set-pieces, both teams had multiple opportunities through corner kicks, with Lausanne having the upper hand with seven corners to Winterthur’s four. However, Lausanne proved more adept at utilizing these set-pieces to maintain pressure on the Winterthur defence. Additionally, despite being caught offside twice, Lausanne's forward movements weren't hindered, as the disciplined backline of Winterthur failed to create any offside situations for their opponents.

Winterthur's discipline came into question with an early yellow card, but it was Lausanne who accumulated more yellow cards overall, receiving two in quick succession in the second half. Despite this, Winterthur could not capitalize on the numerical discipline edge, highlighting a lack of cohesion and urgency in their gameplay. Ultimately, the match was defined by Lausanne's efficient attack, disciplined structure, and ability to exploit their hosts' defensive frailties. These factors combined ensured their comfortable progression in the Swiss Cup.
