Including the national team: the host wishes Germany a nightmare group

The desired group of Minister of Sports Amherd

Football fans have already put together the desired groups in their minds, including three Nati stars and Sports Minister Viola Amherd.

Viola Amherd (61), Minister of Sports: Spain, Austria, Slovenia:

«Playing against Spain is always exciting, even if it is difficult and Spain has a good team. A game is always more attractive when you have a challenge than when you play against a less highly ranked team. A neighboring match with Austria would be nice, especially because as Minister of Defense I maintain good relations with my Austrian colleague and we meet regularly. That would certainly be exciting. Slovenia is often compared to Switzerland: in terms of landscape, nature and people. That would be a good match.”

Coumba Sow (29), Basel: France, Albania, Netherlands:

“I think France would be cool, they have already solved this task well and I like the kind of players the French have. Since we don’t have anything in the summer, I might as well take a look. I would also find Albania exciting and a good game, especially because many players have a connection with this country, which would certainly be very special. The Netherlands would of course be special for me because my mother is Dutch. But if this match happens, I am in favor of Switzerland, especially because my cousin Djibril might also be on the field. But of course I wish the Netherlands only the best.”

Riola Xhemaili (20), Wolfsburg: Germany, Austria, Netherlands:

“My two ideal opponents would be Germany and the Netherlands. Playing Germany would be cool because I also feel like we have a good chance to beat them. I also like the Netherlands. Austria would also be cool from pot 2, against them we could show that we are doing well in Swiss football. Because despite the not so easy qualification, we can be proud of what is happening in Swiss football.”

Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic (33), Atletico Madrid: Germany, Hungary, Slovenia:

“Of course I hope for top opponents. From pot 1 I take Germany, they are not such a big hit at the moment. Ours certainly had better stages, but in the end they qualified for the tournament and that is not a given. I’m taking Hungary out of pot 2, after all we want to move forward. And from Pot 3 Slovenia. I think that would be a good group that they would probably sign with.”
