Switzerland, as the German – opening win provides 5 insights

1. Happiness

It is day 1 after the Georgia game. Around the national team in Basel, the question arises: How good is Fabian Schär? Pretty good, like team doctor Damian Meli tells. Warping have also shown the Morning after the four-hour flight back to Switzerland "no alarming symptoms". Lucky.

It is a bit unusual, what happened on Saturday in Tbilisi. The 24 runs. Minute in the first Swiss EM-qualification game, the warping and Jemal Tabidse violently with the heads collide.

the archipelago is suspected to have briefly lost consciousness. With and against players brought in to rush. The Georgian Jano Ananidse engages in Schärs the mouth and the tongue, to keep him from Choking. Doctor Meli sprints on the turf.

The blow to the head, which is thought to be the K. o., the blank gaze, the coordination difficulties later on when you get Up – there are no good characters. In the NFL warping would have been allowed to play more. In the brain shocks sensitized Football League, the Credo is: "In doubt, set him out." There are doubts, take him from the field. This is also in hockey.

Meli is warping still continue to play. He can justify it. When he reaches the player who is warping "alert and oriented". Meli examines the warping according to the "Sport Concussion Assessment Tool" and finds no neuropsychological deficits. This large sports associations widely applied Test, the affected athletes will be checked in five points.

For the previous Fifa medical Chief Jiri Dvorak, the procedure is correct. But he also says: For a clean clarification, it actually needs more than the nearly five minutes that it was in the archipelago. Dvorak argues for the possibility of replacing a player temporarily and to examine carefully. It takes about ten minutes.

In the second half, is the warping of the skull, in spite of the first "spongy feeling" and a permanent hum to the large figure of the Swiss. He directs with a phenomenal play about 50 meters of the 1:0. And he prepares the 2:0.

2. Once Germany

won As the Germans in the football still the Germans were and games almost a matter of course, they did not always exciting. But, it was said: So you are doing your work, Mature performance.

If the Swiss win their games, and they do now more often than the Germans, then you should do that too to Shine. That is the claim to you in the small country. The way it is: The people between Basel and Chiasso also want to be entertained.

Saturday is a day on which the Swiss test out the whole feeling of range. First of all, you care for upset, because you make it to the Start just under the impression they could play for three hours and would still get a goal.

With the second half of the change, and with it the satisfaction of coming to have the job done – not the same in form, but at least reasonable. The 2:0 for Switzerland, the strength ratios between the numbers 8 and 91 of the world again. Switzerland is the second half, even so think that you could achieve far more than just the goals from Steven Zuber and Denis Zakaria. She is Mature enough to fulfill the obligation – just as you would the Germany of the past.

This also affects the Match tomorrow, if it goes in Basel against Denmark. Coach Vladimir Petkovic : "thanks to the victory against Georgia, we are not necessarily under pressure."

3. A question of attitude

It's not the first Time that the Swiss under Petkovic at the beginning of the game is far from ready. It was you alone at the world Cup in the summer in Russia, in three of four Games, it the game of the Nations Cup against Belgium was also in the decisive group. Against Serbia, they were able to turn the result against Costa Rica, it was enough somehow to 2:2; of the eighth-final against Sweden ended, however, as bleak as it had begun, against Belgium from an early 0:2 5:2 was.

What speaks in favor of the Swiss: that they always manage to change within a game, the mentality. You can respond, because you realize what you did wrong. Comment by Granit Xhaka for the Match in Tbilisi: "We were in the break all not satisfied – from the Goalie up to the forwards. And the coach was not impressed by our performance."

What speaks against the Swiss: that you are not always forced back to a reaction, because you find in the game. "This can have many causes," said Xhaka on Saturday, without going into Detail. The Swiss have long to find none of procedure, self-complacent, are faulty, not likely to win the two battles, especially in the Offensive. They are simply bad.

"keep calm, Gas": This is Petkovic's explanation in the short version, for the increase after the break. Maybe it tasted of his team in the future with this formula from the beginning. You could save yourself some Worry if you would find from the first Minute to the right mentality and attitude. To do this, it needs more than just a Gimmick with a system switching from a 3-4-3 to a 3-5-2, as in Tbilisi, more than the proof, are such as to become flexible, players. It needs mainly a change in the head. So the Swiss should start tomorrow against Denmark.

A question of attitude, it is also, when it comes to the Xhakas warning in Georgia. 89. Minute runs, the game is decided, and Xhaka comes from deep in the opponents ' half on the idea of the Ball to chip away at. Unprofessional as it gets. He is such a misfire in a different Situation, it can also have even more serious consequences than just a warning, it is also a goal. Because Xhaka should think in the upcoming important Games.

4. It takes Seferovic

With Xherdan Shaqiri and Haris Seferovic two players were absent injured, playing in 139 countries on 39 goals. Shaqiri, the artist, is the Unpredictable capable of and not missing, if the team runs. Seferovic of workers in the storm center, the barrel would not even tired, if he would.

At duration, it needs to Shaqiri. He may have had his misfires, but in a playful way, he has a Talent like no Swiss.

It is also Seferovic needs in the storm center, if he excels both against Belgium as he scored three goals. The event of 18. November has him inspired in such a way that the effects of the in the club until the end of February. Within the space of eight matches, he scored for Benfica Lisbon eleven goals. Seferovic in this Constitution, would have achieved in Tbilisi, the one or the other Goal.

The first qualifier for the next European championship not to be used for Mario Gavranovic as an application video for future operations. In the first half, he is completely lost, because he receives from midfield and from the partners on the page, Embolo and making, no support. He is not a good scene, and as him after the break, the Chance would offer, because he stands in front of the gate, looking Freuler self-completion.

On Gavranovic follows Albian Ajeti, he has three options. He uses no. Nevertheless, he is likely to be tomorrow to Gavranovic advantage.

5. Making hits run

He and hitting and hitting already. But when it comes to Steven Zuber, there are soon even more of everything. "More goals, more Assists, more wins for my teams."

Five Times the 27-Year-old in the past five games for VfB Stuttgart successfully, the Club is in a relegation battle. Mixed with the national team Goal number 6 Match number 6 is now available for making. "Making is almost always true", says a Reporter after the Match to him. Making responds: "Is it good, is it?"

came together As the national team seven days ago in Zurich, said the Tösstaler: "Sometimes you can't explain in football, how, where, what." And yet he has the feeling to know the reasons for his High: the work in Training. His will, still a bit more to come.

In the national team has established itself making in the past few weeks, almost unnoticed as the root of power. Has supported his Position with regular gates. And important goals. As the world Cup, against Brazil, the 1:1 was achieved. Or now in Tbilisi with the 1:0 for Switzerland as a "can opener" (making), appeared.

It is for making the 6. Hits in the 22. Use for Switzerland, in the cut he made of 0.27 goals per Match. Thus he reached almost the level of Haris Seferovic (0,29) or Xherdan Shaqiri (0,28). Now, a goal against Denmark, then he would have overtaken the two.
