In the first squad of the interim national coach Reto Gertschen for the last two Nations League games of Swiss women there are no surprises.
The 23-man squad for the home game next Friday in Lucerne against Sweden and the away game on Tuesday, December 5th in Parma against Italy includes 21 players who were already there under Gertschen’s predecessor Inka Grings when they last came together in October.
In the absence of Bundesliga striker Svenja Fölmli, who is injured due to a torn cruciate ligament, two young defenders, Ella Touon and Laura Felber, are returning to the team. While 22-year-old Felber was part of the World Cup squad in the summer, Touon, who is a year older, was last called up in April for the first two weeks of World Cup preparation.
The starting position in the Nations League is difficult for the Swiss after the change of coach. The first four games were all lost. In the 1:7 defeat against world champions Spain, they at least managed to score a goal. In order to avoid relegation to League B, the SFV team needs at least a draw against Sweden and a win against Italy. (sda)
