Comment on new Nati coach Pia Sundhage: “Strong signal from the association”

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 fmXrkB”>

By signing Pia Sundhage (63), the Swiss Football Association (SFV) achieved a coup. The Swede knows women’s football inside out and has an illustrious background as both a player and coach. Your palms speak for themselves. In Sweden, the USA and Brazil she has trained the best of the best: Carli Lloyd, Megan Rapinoe, Caroline Seger and Marta.

With two Olympic victories, which in women’s football are even more important than World Cup titles, another Olympic final and a World Cup final, Sundhage is one of the most successful coaches in history. This is truly a big name that SFV can represent, comparable to Ottmar Hitzfeld’s dedication to the men’s national team in 2008. The European Championships at home in 2025 will obviously provide enough challenge and incentive for Sundhage, even though the national team is not a world team. class to come to Switzerland.

Thanks to the choice of coach, SFV set a course for successfully holding a home European Championship at the sports level. Now the players are faced with a task. After a more than mixed last year, with only two wins, they have a debt. They have a year and a half to develop individually and as a team so that the national team can inspire the masses at the 2025 European Championships. The SFV served its purpose. By signing Sundhage, he sent a strong signal.
