Bitter: against Italy, a penalty kick was stolen twice from the Swiss – here Zeki Amdouni.

Three points from the first two group matches: At first glance, the first intermediate result of the U21 team at the European Championship is okay. And what was to be expected. Victory against the weakest group opponent Norway, defeat against the favorite Italians.

But in practice, the Swiss now have their backs against the wall. Assuming Italy scores against Norway, our U21s need a win against France. In principle, according to UEFA, Patrick Frame’s team will certainly continue if they win against France. The fact that the French are tournament favorite number 1 for many experts shows how difficult it will be…

In a draw against France, Switzerland will need Italy to lose to Norway to progress. In theory, Patrick Frame’s team can even afford to lose in the last group game. But only if Norway beat Italy 1-0. In this case, the goal difference would speak for Switzerland.

“The second half gives us courage to get something against France,” said midfielder Ardon Jashari. For the FC Luzern captain, however, the U21 European Championship must go beyond the knockout phase: the Swiss dream is to qualify for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. For that you need a place in the top 3 – alongside France (Olympic hosts) and the English, who are excluded from the Olympics. Only all-British teams and individual athletes will start for the Olympics.

Gnonto sends greetings: “I hope I can come to Zurich soon”(00:18)

And how is the top 3 determined at the U21 European Championship?

Scenario 1: If neither France nor England qualify for the semi-finals, there will be a match for third place. The winner there and the finalists qualify for Paris.

Scenario 2: Eligible eor France or England for the semi-finals, the three remaining semi-finalists qualify for Paris.

Scenario 3: Qualify France And England for the semi-finals, the other two semi-finalists qualify for Paris. Third place at the Olympic Games is played between the two quarter-finalists with the best record in the group matches.
