Basel won the Swiss Football League title
Two sides with great tradition shared the major honours in Switzerland this season with FC Basel 1893 successfully defending the Swiss Football League title and FC Zürich winning the Swiss Cup.
Thun held
Basel secured their eleventh title, fittingly on 11 May, by defeating FC St. Gallen 3-1. FC Thun, the only side in a position to catch them, saw their title hopes end when they were held to a 1-1 draw by their local rivals BSC Young Boys.
Gimenez scores
The Argentinian connection proved decisive again for the defending champions against St. Gallen - Christian Gimenez scored twice to bring his tally for the season to 27, including 12 in a run of five games, before his compatriot Julio Rossi sealed the win with a penalty.
Home form
Basel have only lost five matches over the season and are unbeaten at Saint Jakob Park since December 2002. Thun's consolation for finishing second was a berth in the qualifying round for the 2005/06 UEFA Champions League.
