Nati check for Kosovo match: ‘Just pushing a boring ball’

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

When everything looks like a difficult 2-1 victory, Kosovo strikes again. The qualifying match for the European Championship ends in a 2-2 draw. The Nati players leave the field dejected.

Bad mood on the field, bad mood also in the Blick comments column. “One of the weakest international matches in recent years,” said reader Bruno Blattner. But who could still convince? Who gets a good grade from the readers and who should stay home next time? You can now discover it in the national team check.

The best: Remo Freuler

With his goal in the 14th minute he not only hit the net, but also straight into the heart of the community. “Freuler is the only ray of hope,” reader Manuel Denzler writes in the comments. With his performance he also leaves old favorite Yann Sommer far behind him, but he still takes second place among the best.

Worst: Granit Xhaka

As frustrated as Nati captain Xhaka was after the 2-2 draw against Kosovo, the Blick community was also irritated. Yet there is a podium place for Xhaka in the national team check, albeit with the title “The Worst”. What is going on? “Xhaka also played very poorly. “No interest, no will and no leadership,” says reader Louis Bielmann.

Coach Murat Yakin: grade 2.6

Captain Granit Xhaka is not the only one doing poorly. An insufficient score also applies to the trainer: 2.6. Does arrest help? Not if the community gets its way, it has completely different demands: “Yakin out, Xhaka out – then Switzerland goes to the European Championships. Otherwise it will never work,” writes reader Jean Widder. Theo Zehnder thinks so too: “The coach is primarily responsible for the poor performance of the team. Yakin seems perplexed, helpless and overwhelmed.”

Referee Jakob Kehlet: rating 4.5

The referee gets the only passing score of the night. With a solid grade of 4.5, he performed best in the community.

SRF commentator Sascha Ruefer: rating 3.9

Almost over is also over: there is also not enough for the voice of the evening: SRF commentator Sascha Ruefer. But you look in vain for a reason for the weak rating in the comments column.

National team performance: grade 1.9

Calculated wrong? No Unfortunately not. This figure is actually correct: readers gave the Kosovo draw a 1.9. And why? “No pace, no humor. Just boring pushing balls,” the comments say.
