F91 Dudelange produced a scintillating second-half display to overturn a deficit and defeat Progres Niedercorn 4-2 at the Stade Jos Haupert, finishing their season on a high note. The defending champions showed their class after a slow start, with four different goalscorers contributing to a comprehensive victory.

Match Overview

Progres Niedercorn came flying out of the blocks and took a deserved lead in the 12th minute through striker Edis Agovic, who latched onto a through ball and slotted past Dudelange goalkeeper Jonathan Resende. The home side doubled their advantage just before half-time when midfielder Olivier Thill curled a free kick into the top corner. Dudelange looked shell-shocked but emerged from the interval with renewed purpose.

Key Moments

• 12' – Progres 1-0: Agovic timed his run perfectly to meet a pass from winger Albin Berisha and finished with composure.
• 44' – Progres 2-0: Thill’s free kick from 25 yards left Resende rooted to the spot.

• 65' – Dudelange 2-2: Substitute Alan Carty equalised with a header from a corner kick.

Tactical Story

Progres Niedercorn’s early intensity caught Dudelange off guard, but the visitors’ superior fitness and depth told in the second half. Manager Carlos Fangueiro switched to a 3-4-3 formation after the break, overloading the flanks and exposing gaps in Progres’s defence. The home side, by contrast, dropped deeper and deeper, inviting pressure that they could not withstand.

Standout Players

Cédric Farin was the architect of Dudelange’s comeback with two goals and an assist. His movement between the lines caused constant problems. For Progres, Edis Agovic scored a fine opener but faded after the interval, while Olivier Thill’s free kick was a moment of pure quality.

Season Impact

F91 Dudelenge finish the campaign in 2nd place on 57 points, three points behind champions Swift Hesperange. Progres Niedercorn end the season in 5th position with 46 points, missing out on European qualification.
