The Swiss U21 national team meets France in the final group game at the European Championships. Ardon Jashari expects a difficult game, but says: “We don’t have to hide from anyone.” The 20-year-old also shows leadership qualities on and off the pitch.

In the second European Championship game, the Swiss U21 national team got under their wheels against Italy in the first half and were already 0:3 behind at the break. Patrick Framework reacts, brings new offensive power with Darian Males in the second half and replaces left-back Lewin Blum. As a result, Ardon Jashari is pulled back to full-back in the second half – thrown in at the deep end.

“It’s not my position. I didn’t know her before, I’ve never played in this position before, »says Jashari when asked about his use as a left-back. “I can’t judge myself how well I played because I don’t know the principles of this position very well. But if I’m needed in this position, then I’ll play for the team and not for myself.”

“We don’t have to hide from anyone”

For Jashari, that goes without saying. “I said before the tournament that I would be available to the team and of course also to the coach,” explained the 20-year-old before the final group game against France (Wednesday, 8.45 p.m.).

Jashari expects an intense game against the undefeated French. “We know what the starting position is and that we have to win. We know it’s going to be a tough game, that we’re going to see a team with a lot of quality. But we don’t have to hide from anyone, we’ve proven that several times.”

There are scenarios in which Switzerland advances to the quarter-finals with a draw or even a defeat. But you don’t want to be dependent on support. “We’re going into the game to win,” Jashari makes it clear and knows: “Against such good nations as Italy or France, it’s the details that count.”
