The national team needs at least four points from Friday’s games against Sweden (in Lucerne) and four days later in Italy to have a chance of staying in League A. A difficult, but not impossible undertaking.

At the association itself, there seems to be little belief in staying in the competition, because Reto Gertschen formulated his objective as follows during his presentation: “We want to achieve a stable, confident and joyful performance so that we can end the year with a good feeling can close. good feeling.”

Some experience with SFV offspring

The head of trainer training at the SFV comes to work like a virgin to a child. He was on vacation when he got a call from his boss a week ago and was asked. After sleeping on it, he agrees. Gertschen does not believe this can be a long-term solution. “But in football you never know.”

The new national coach, who played an international match for the national team in 1990, approaches the matter with an open mind. He hasn’t spoken to any players on the phone because he wants to meet them in person on Monday. He knows some of them because of his role at the SFV, as seven players from the national team are following the coaching course this year to obtain the C diploma.

Gertschen’s experience as a trainer is limited to a few years as a boss and assistant in the SFV youth team. According to Marion Daube, the interim coach must above all bring positivity to the team. “Now we have some peace and quiet,” said the Nati director. The past few weeks surrounding the national women’s team have been turbulent. Despite the sports crisis with only one victory in 14 matches, the association held on to Inka Grings (45) until the ‘Tecklenburg case’ became its downfall. The SFV then took action.

Just no experiments now

The climate within the team was also not good, because the argument between record player Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic (33) and Grings is representative of this. Now Gertschen has the job of smoothing things out. His successor and therefore the long-term solution until the European Championship at home in 2025 must then be presented quietly, but as quickly as possible. The next meeting in the new year will take place in February.

This is another reason why Gertschen refrains from experimenting. He relies on the majority of the players who performed well in the first leg in Sweden (0-1). Of the boys Grings introduced to the national team this year, Alayah Prilgrim (20) and Smilla Vallotto (19) are back. The two made a lasting impression. Ella Toulon (20), who plays with St. Pölten in the Champions League, is back in the Nati circle.
