Switzerland’s Disappointing Finish in 2023 Nations League & the Search for a New Coach – Latest Updates

2023-12-05 20:46:23

Falling to Sweden on Friday in Lucerne, Switzerland failed to confirm in Parma during its last match of the 2023 Nations League. Reto Gertschen’s players lost 3-0 to Italy and finished in 4th and last place, synonymous with relegation to League B.

A Swiss defeat to end a year which was marked by participation in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. For the rest, not much to remember. In the 6 matches played in the Nations League, Lia Wälti, Ramona Bachmann and her teammates posted a mediocre record: 1 victory, 5 defeats, 2 goals scored for… 17 conceded.

Against Italy, Switzerland has very often been late, passive, poorly organized and without real ideas. Difficult in these conditions to stand up to the Squadra. The entries of Sandrine Mauron, Alayah Pilgrim and Smilla Vallotto in the second half changed nothing on the scoreboard. “We had chances against Italy, but we weren’t effective”explained Sandrine Mauron after the meeting at the RTS microphone.

The project before the ASF is colossal, at one and a half of “its” Euro. First step: find a successor to interim coach Reto Gertschen.
