Missed the semifinals: correct your aim – or take the consequences

Ouch. The Germans are celebrating again after a quarterfinal against Switzerland.

Not again. Eliminated against Germany. Missed the chance to get revenge for the latest rejection. Just like on the same podium two years ago, nerves give way when the stakes are high. A knockout game against Germany means maximum pressure because everyone expects a win – it’s not Finland or Sweden. And it’s wonderful when you dominate the preliminary round almost at will. But when the excitement rises to ever higher speeds, the Nati loses its nerve against Germany.

Criticizing the maneuver also raises the question of how five top Swiss players can be so overwhelmed by four Germans in the power play as they were before the third goal was awarded.

One should never be without Genoni

And why was Robert Mayer in the box while Leonardo Genoni is there? One should never be without Genoni.

Of course, Robert Mayer’s mistake was inconclusive because a) there was still plenty of time left for a correction and b) other goals were scored. But this early and absolutely impossible goal costs a few percentage points of composure, because no one expects such a goal.

Bond and coach now have to think carefully about how they are going to explain this defeat to the public. The official goal of “semi-finals” sounds wonderful, but in a healthy performance culture, missing a goal has to have consequences at some point or you lose credibility.
