The national team will play against Belarus in Kybun Park on Sunday in front of packed stands. Three days before the match, the 17,000 tickets were all gone. St. Gallen becomes a festival hut on weekends. The 80th Olma, the Swiss trade fair for agriculture and food, also started on Thursday.

Murat Yakin (49) can draw from everything. All 23 players called up are fit and took part in the first training on the Gründermoos sports field. The afternoon was mainly devoted to regeneration. An ice bath in the hotel garden and appointments with the physiotherapists were on the agenda.

Because the trip to Tel Aviv was canceled, the national team moved into their accommodation at Hotel Säntispark in Abtwil two days earlier than planned. Not an easy task for team manager Damien Mollard (44), because thanks to Olma there are currently few free hotel rooms in St. Gallen. There were still single rooms for the Nati stars, although some players occasionally shared a double room at their own request.

A stone’s throw from Kybunpark, the national team is preparing for the match against Belarus. The grass fields are excellent, says St. Gallen coach Peter Zeidler with a smile on his face. No comparison with Riddes USA, where the Nati trained for the matches against Kosovo and Andorra in September, which caused problems for the Nati stars. In the interests of the national team, the St. Gallen team also plans their usual training times half an hour earlier than normal. Nothing should stand in the way of a victory against Belarus.
