When will YB take their fifth national title since 2018? Thursday or Saturday on the couch? Or only on the field on Sunday, when Luzern pursuers are guests in Wankdorf?

“For us, these are luxury problems,” says YB communications chief Albert Staudenmann. “We’re not picky.” Every way to win the title has its appeal. “It’s important to us that we are together as a team when the time comes.” In 2019, the team experienced the title together in front of the TV screen in the Sky Lounge in Wankdorf, in 2018, 2020 and 2021 on the field.

Numeracy skills are currently required so that beer and champagne are cold when the crucial moment arrives. The corks can only pop on Thursday if Servette (against Zurich) and Lugano (in St. Gallen) do not win on Wednesday and Lucerne, which is in good shape, loses to low-ranked Winterthur on Thursday. If that doesn’t happen, it could be that time on Saturday. Condition: Lucerne loses to Winti and Servette and/or Lugano wins on Wednesday but not on Saturday. understood?

In the city of Bern you are prepared for all variants, wherever and whenever it happens. “It’s very simple,” said Reto Nause, the security director of the city of Bern. “On the day YB becomes champion, a free night in Bern will be granted.”

Winning the title on Sunday on the field, when YB asks Lucerne to dance at home in front of a full rank, is the wish of many. This duel evokes memories of April 28, 2018, when Marco Wölfli’s penalty parade and Jean-Pierre Nsame’s goal shortly before the end redeemed the soul of the Bernese people after 32 years and turned Wankdorf into a madhouse. “A night to remember” for all YB fans.

This time, a draw could be enough for the Bernese to celebrate the title. Full seats for the first time since 2018 after the 2020 and 2021 championships were marred by the coronavirus pandemic. A big party would be guaranteed. And should the Young Boys also dive against Luzern? Then there are various other options for the designated master. One thing is clear: the new championship title in Bern will be celebrated twice. Night turns into day at the official championship party after the end of the season. The federal capital as a party city. “We are in contact with YB to set the date for the championship celebration,” says Nause.
