2 player game on a 2xn rectangular grid

Alina and Bogdan play a game on a 2\times n rectangular grid (n2n\ge 2) whose sides of length 22 are glued together to form a cylinder. Alternating moves, each player cuts out a unit square of the grid. A player loses if his/her move causes the grid to lose circular connection (two unit squares that only touch at a corner are considered to be disconnected). Suppose Alina makes the first move. Which player has a winning strategy?
