The home side doubled their advantage ten minutes into the second half. The 55th-minute goal arrived via another sharp attacking sequence, catching the Feulen back line out of shape.

The turning point
The second goal in the 55th minute effectively ended the contest. Feulen had held firm after the restart, but the early concession in the second half forced them to chase the game, leaving gaps that Jeunesse exploited in the closing stages. The visitors' best spell came immediately after the restart before the second goal went in.
Key performers
Without named scorers in the official data, the collective defensive performance stood out. Jeunesse kept a clean sheet against a Feulen side that had created chances in earlier friendlies. The home midfield dictated the tempo across the 90 minutes, particularly in the transition from defence to attack after winning possession.

By the numbers — interpreted
The 3-0 scoreline reflects a game Jeunesse controlled from start to finish. The 1-0 half-time lead suggested a tighter contest than it was — Feulen rarely threatened the home goal. Jeunesse's third goal in the 89th minute, when Feulen committed numbers forward, was the natural outcome of a side chasing the game without the cutting edge to reduce the deficit. The clean sheet was Jeunesse's first in pre-season since their 1-1 draw with UN Käerjeng 97 on 8 July.
What it means
This was Jeunesse Esch's fifth of eight scheduled pre-season friendlies for the 2026/27 campaign. They next face Avenir Beggen away on 21 July, followed by FC Koeppchen at home on 22 July, before closing their preparation against Berdenia Berbourg on 25 July. Their BGL Ligue season begins on 2 August away at Progrès Niederkorn.
For Feulen, this was part of a busy pre-season schedule ahead of the Ehrenpromotion kick-off on 16 August at home against FC Marisca Mersch. They play FC Jeunesse Useldingen on 23 July in their next friendly.
Verdict
A straightforward pre-season workout for Jeunesse Esch against a side two divisions below them. The scoreline reflected the gap in level, and the clean sheet will please the coaching staff as they fine-tune for the BGL Ligue opener. Feulen will face sterner tests in the Ehrenpromotion but will want to sharpen their attack before the season starts.
