Swiss national team celebrates strong start to World Cup qualifying: 6 points, 7 goals!
A brilliant start to the World Cup qualification: The Swiss national team is in impressive form and is heading into the qualification with two wins. On Monday, the Swiss inflicted a 3-0 defeat on Slovenia at St. Jakob-Park in Basel. Breel Embolo scored the second goal and scored his fifth goal in a row with his goal in the 33rd minute. “I’m happy about the support of my teammates,” said Fabian Rieder, who contributed significantly to Embolo’s goal with a cross.
The goals for Switzerland all came in the first half: Nico Elvedi opened the scoring in the 18th minute after a corner from Ruben Vargas, while Dan Ndoye made it 3-0 in the 38th minute. The team left nothing to be desired on defense; Slovenia only threatened once in the first 42 minutes when their first shot at goal failed.
Team spirit and optimism
After the impressive start with a 3-0 win against Slovenia, Rieder praised the strong team spirit: "We showed from the first moment that we are ready. Both on the ball and without the ball, the performance was consistently convincing." Manuel Akanji is also optimistic about the upcoming game against Sweden and expressed his confidence in the victory. After the first two games we now have six points and an excellent goal difference of 7:0.
Denis Zakaria, who is also part of the team, confirmed the strong team performance but pointed out that there is still room for improvement, especially in the second half against Slovenia. “It is important that we stay focused until the end,” said Zakaria, who praised the hard work of the entire team.
Looking ahead to the next challenges
The upcoming games in the World Cup qualification are already on the program: Switzerland will face Sweden on October 10th, followed by the second leg against Slovenia on October 13th. “We have to take the positive energy with us and continue to work hard,” sums up Rieder, who motivates the team to tackle the next steps with the same commitment.
In summary, the fans can look forward to exciting games while the national team is in top form. The path to the World Cup has been paved and the Swiss players seem determined to make it successfully. So the sport of football not only brings joy, but also hope for great things - the audience can stay excited!
