Switzerland round-up: Zürich too strong for Servette

FC Zürich warmed up for their Intertoto Cup tie against Aston Villa FC by beating Servette FC.

Servette FC's poor start to the season continued as FC Zürich warmed up for their Intertoto Cup tie against Aston Villa FC with a 3-1 win at the Letzigrund stadium.

Keita scores twice
The 19-year-old Zürich striker Alhassan Keita scored twice against Servette, his fourth and fifth goals of the season making him the league's top scorer and firing a warning to Villa, whom Zürich face in the first leg of their third-round tie on Saturday.
