These are violent scenes. Images that are burned into your memory. Fabian Frei (34), the record player, who has been with FCB since 2004, says: “I have never experienced anything like this here.” At the beginning of October, the proud FC Basel lost at home to newly promoted Lausanne-Ouchy. 0:3. It is the absolute low point of a time that is not poor in low points. And it is the beginning of the end for Heiko Vogel (48). Three games and three defeats later, the team is out of Palatinate history and since then a change of pace has been blowing in Joggeli.
Does the switch to Dinosio have an effect now?
Under new coach Fabio Celestini (48), the Basel team won three of the four matches. The Romand managed to form a unit from a completely insecure group. Because he is a meticulous worker and leaves nothing to chance. Because he stabilized the defense and got into the players’ heads. However, the Ouchy trauma will only be definitively overcome if FCB wins today against the same opponent on the Pontaise.
The signs for this are good. Also because the promoted team has not achieved anything since the 3-0 win against FCB. Four defeats in six games and no fewer than 21 goals conceded were the downfall of promotion coach Antony Braizat, and the debut of his successor Antonio Dinosio (40) also failed. 0:1 in the derby against Lausanne-Sport.
Ten FCB players are out
But it won’t be an absolute success for the Celestini team on Saturday. Because with Comas, Lopez, Hunziker, Augustin, Zé, Malone, Barisic and Demir, nine players are out injured. And Gabriel Sigua will be missing due to suspension. To make matters worse, conditions will be anything but ideal. Celestini sees it that way too. He grew up playing football at the Pontaise. “This is my stadium. With all its weaknesses, the athletics track, the wind, the small audience.”
In any case, the FCB fans will provide a good atmosphere. Will they reconcile with their team after the 0-3 debacle at the beginning of October?
