Rieder reveals the biggest YB party animals

class=”sc-3778e872-0 cKDKQr”>

It is exactly 6 pm, 20 minutes and 44 seconds when referee Luca Cibelli blows his whistle three times and with that it is official: YB is Swiss champion for the 16th time. And suddenly there are many Fasnachts on the field. Because substitutes and staff storm the place with the 16 on their backs. Not as a tribute to the goalscorer at 2-0, but to underline the number of titles. “It was great to see everyone at 16,” Fasi would later say with a laugh. “Anyway, I am very happy to accept that…”

This time there is no space storm

It’s a simple choice for massive champion jerseys, these 16. Yet it’s as simple as the things this champion has done this season. The simple things are right. And with a lot of discipline. Whatever the fans show. If the 32-year wait ended in a massive storm on April 28, 2018, not a single fan climbed the barricades this time. The fans remain in their seats in a well-mannered and disciplined manner. They honor the team with this motto: “Rang is ja o suberi Büez … Merci!” Cool. Confident.

“Emotional to Me”

The players, for their part, pop the corks after just a few seconds! They are unstoppable. Celebrate with a paper cup. And top scorer Jean-Pierre Nsame speaks of “revenge” after losing the title in 2022. And that he absolutely wants to help bring the title back to where it belongs. “To where I left the club when I got injured. That’s why this title is very emotional for me,” said the French-Cameroonian on SRF.

And as the first interviews are conducted, one “YB song” after another is being smashed by the fans. “Scarlet red” by Patent Ochsner in the BSC version “Gäub u schwarz”. Or “Someone Catches Luck” by Züri West. And again and again: «Football Swiss Championship BSC!»

Now it’s time to celebrate properly

For many it is the first title that can be celebrated “properly”. In 2019 you were the bank master. 2020 and 2021 the championships fell into the pandemic. “All the better that we can now celebrate with everyone,” says young star Fabian Rieder. “With these incredible fans who are like a real family. I can hardly describe it.” And who are the biggest party animals? “Fasi, Zesi, Lewin, Loris and me. Our little group.” One of the lions, Cédric Zesiger, gets to the point of what needs to be done now: “I feel like partying!” Well he can. It’s Friday night in Bern. Officially.

PS: And already at 7:06 p.m., the new Swiss champion will be officially celebrated on the Wankdorf plastic after a short break in the cabin. That’s how it works in Bern.
