    It's a very good selection.
    I'm very happy for Zesiger's first call-up, he really deserved to be there.
    The only player that is missing is Cedric Itten, i would have called him.

    7 points would be great. But I would take 6.

    2-1 win over Greece but only 3000 in the stands! Shaqiri and Xhaka are both out with positive COVID tests.

    For the match againt Italy there will be Xhaka and Freuler injured in the midfield.
    I hope that Aebischer will have a chance this time.

    Scoreless against Italy at the half. So far, so good.

    Another player that is missing is Miro Muheim! With Benito injured, he should have been called, he is a better wingback than Ulisses Garcia!

    Wow, that was underwhelming. 0-0 in Belfast.

    2-0 over Northern Ireland. Not too bad. Lithuania today. They should be even with Italy on 14 points and 6 matches played after today.

    0-4 win for Switzerland over Lithuania. They are tied on points with Italy.

    Swiss get :
    Brazil
    Serbia
    Switzerland
    Cameroon

    The Serbia match should be a very interesting one. I think that Swiss can get out of that group.

    Pretty poor defensive showing yesterday vs Czech Republic.

    Ouch, yesterday was really bad. Looks like the Swiss will be relegated to B in the Next Nations League. They would really need to get points from all remaining matches to avoid relegation.

    1-0 win over Portugal in Geneva. The Swiss played better, but not great.

    The comments are great.

    Nation's league
    24 Sep at Zaragoza vs Spain
    27 Sep in St. Gallen vs Czech Republic

    To stay in the top League, they need at least 4 points with some help, and 6 would be amazing.

    Mario Gavranovic has retired from the National Team. Lots of friction between him and Yakin.

    Well. Switzerland grabs three points in Spain. Now they need to get something from Czech Republic at home.

    2-1 win keeps the Swiss in the top League for the Nations League.

    Sommer with a PK save to make the win possible.

    They could also lose to just about any team on a given day. It will be interesting to see how things progress. The match with Serbia is going to be very tense.

    Not really sure a 2-0 loss to Ghana inspires me. I know they had 6 subs in the 2nd half, and that is when the goals were scored, but still.
