Just a few weeks after the bitter World Cup match against Spain, it’s already time for the Nati and Inka Grings to hit the road together again. The newly established Women’s Nations League will start at the end of September.
Switzerland does this compared to the World Cup selection with six substitutions. The absence of Ana Maria Crnogorcevic is striking. The Barcelona striker was told a few days ago that she had to look for a new club. Now she doesn’t get a national team either. As with the other five missing, Grings said he spoke to her about it and explained it was not a demotion issue. The list is just a snapshot.
Suddenly, Grings praises Xhemaili again
“I talked to her for over half an hour. It’s not an easy situation for her, but she’s very tough,” says Grings. The fact that Crnogorcevic is not there has nothing to do with their footballing qualities. “We will give her time to find a new club and settle in quickly.”
After surprisingly not being nominated for the World Cup, Riola Xhemaili is back in the squad. “She has had a very good preparation and I would like to give her another chance,” explains Grings. After all, the twenty-year-old from Solothurn is a very important player for the national team.
Before the World Cup, Grings spoke of Xhemaili in a markedly different tone. Although she did not want to see the non-nomination as a lesson. Still, she said of the midfielder: “She is an important player for the future. But she needs to invest more. I hope this all starts a process for her. There can be no greater motivation than the home market in two years.”
Switzerland starts against Italy
At the premiere of the Nations League, Switzerland will meet Sweden, Spain and Italy. Each team plays once at home and once away against each opponent. The winners of the four groups in League A will play the Final Four in February, with the two finalists qualifying for the Olympic Games in Paris. The third-placed players in each group play a play-off to stay on top, the bottom of the table is relegated to division B. A total of 51 countries take part in three competitions.
The first game for the Nati is on September 22 in Kybunpark against Italy. Four days later, Switzerland then makes a guest appearance in Spain. In addition to winning the World Cup, the kissing scandal surrounding Luis Rubiales still makes headlines in the Iberian Peninsula. Grings finds clear words: “It is dramatic and very sad that the world title is overshadowed by such an incident.”
