The last time St. Gallen humiliated FC Sion in the tourbillon, it cost the head of the coach. In November last year, the 2:7 against FCSG meant the end for Paolo Tramezzani. Is Fabio Celestini also in danger after yesterday’s 4-0 defeat?
«The coaches live from week to week and therefore depend on the results. We depend on them for better or worse. My personal business is not the most important here. The most important thing is how FC Sion gets out of there,” said Celestini at the press conference after the game.
«No fatigue» at Celestini
As coach of FC Sion in 2023, Celestini only took two points from six games. He leads a team that has not won in 11 games since October 15 last year. If FC Winterthur beat Servette on Sunday, Wallis would be last.
“We have to be careful, our game dynamics are not good,” admits the Walliser coach. «I believe in the values of work, the collective and humility. Perhaps we are missing something at this point. I’m sorry for the players. I feel they want to do it right. Personally, I don’t feel tired.”
François Moubandje from Geneva made his first start on Saturday in an FC Sion shirt. He and his fellow defenders conceded four goals. Does Fabio Celestini bring his game idea to the team at all? “The coach has clear ideas. But it is not always easy to implement them exactly on the field. But it is also up to us players to find solutions.”
The cup is not a panacea
Wallis will receive defending champion Lugano in the quarter-finals of the Swiss Cup on Wednesday. A match that is always eagerly awaited in the canton. “Qualifying for the semi-finals wouldn’t change everything for us,” warns Fabio Celestini. “It wouldn’t get any easier in the championship and we wouldn’t be sure of a cup win either.”
Will the born Lausanne still be on the sidelines at FC Sion on Wednesday? President Christian Constantin did not respond to Blick’s request on Saturday. The next few days will be exciting in the office of the Sion boss and in the training center of the club.
