Scherwey’s first hat trick: ‘You have to allow the emotions’

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Tristan Scherwey (32) is SC Bern’s first goalscorer this season. After wonderful preparatory work from his teammates, the Friborg player has the Lausanne goal wide open in front of him to make it 1-0. Scherwey is also SCB’s second goalscorer. Five minutes before the end, his strong wrist shot ends up in the right corner. Lo and behold, Scherwey also scores Bern’s fourth goal as he sinks the puck into the empty net to make it 4-1.

The game is over. And between his appearances with journalists from German-speaking Switzerland and French-speaking Switzerland, the striker takes the time to chat with opponent Andrea Glauser. The two men exchange ideas and eventually Scherwey bags the Lausanne defender. What’s in it? “It’s something personal,” the Bernese answers with a smile.

“I won’t keep booking hat tricks”

If we can’t find out more about the bag, we focus on the game. And these three successes. The first has an outburst of joy. “I had prepared for this match and felt good,” Scherwey explains simply. «You have to allow the emotions. That’s why people like to come to the stadium. It takes them out of their office, so why not share those emotions with them?”

When you tell him that he hasn’t changed, that he still has the same selflessness and willpower on the ice, the Fribourg, who moved from Gottéron Juniors to SCB sixteen years ago and has been playing for the Bernese team ever since, smiles. . «Still the same Tristan Scherwey? I’m not going to continue booking hat-tricks.”

The number 10 of the Mutzen once again emphasized how much he was looking forward to the start of the season: “I didn’t have the chance to fight for a place in the World Cup, so it was time to get started.”

“We also had luck on our side”

Despite this performance and the three goals, Scherwey still questions himself. “Personally, I still have a number of things that I can improve,” he analyzes. “There are too many puck losses and we will work on that.”

One thing the Bernese also need to work on is lack of discipline. With four minor and two major penalties they could have put the match out of their hands. But the boxing game withstood the pressure. “We fought, but in some situations we also had luck on our side,” Scherwey calmly admits.

Above all, the Bernese could count on the support of the public when they were put on the defensive. The cheers and applause from the crowd when you’re outnumbered is almost like scoring a goal, isn’t it? “It’s the energy you give to the crowd,” said the man who scored three times in the National League for the first time. “It’s little things, not always a goal or a pass.”

New coach Jussi Tapola’s team was impressive in this first match and sent a signal to the other teams in the National League. Is Bern in the top group this season? “It’s still a bit early to say that,” says Scherwey.
