Winning goal against Switzerland: Zinchenko hits with a wonderful fluff(01:00)
Granit Xhaka informs Nati’s fans via Instagram before the start and says, “Being back at Nati after about ten months is a lot of fun. I am very proud to be able to play for my country and be a captain. It is a dream come true. We will do our best to make sure he can continue to enjoy it in the future. ”
The way Vladimir Petkovic’s team wants to please the fans of the national team in front of the television is obvious from the start: with aggressive and consistent lookouts. The Ukrainians are constrained, the Swiss, led by Xhaka, are dominant. The fact that this high Swiss pressure doesn’t always work well and can be dangerous can be seen in the 10th minute. Malinowski hits the ball against the post, goalkeeper Yann Sommer would have had no chance. Four minutes later, Petkovic’s team is mercilessly countered and the ball is in the net. Sommer lets Tymschyk’s shot ricochet, Yarmolenko gratefully accepts it and thrusts gloriously with the hoe.

Normally, summer has an opportunity like this for sure. Not this time. 1-0 for the home team. But the Swiss are not confused, they keep pushing very hard and they are rewarded. Xhaka, for once not covered twice by the Ukrainians, uses his unknown freedoms and throws Seferovic. The Benfica striker lets an opponent run into space and hits the ball with his left in the far corner. 1: 1. The award for the loudest cheers in Lviv’s great empty arena goes to Nati’s director Pierluigi Tami.

But in the end the Ukrainians cheer. Kevin Mbabu with a bad pass in preparation, at the end the ball lands on Zinteschenko. The ManCity mercenary glides beautifully into the corner. His joy reaches the heart. Pick up the mourning sash and point to the sky. Zinchenko commemorates the team doctor of the Ukrainian national team who died from the coronavirus.
Now Switzerland can no longer react. Lose the opening match of the Nations League in Ukraine 1: 2. Not necessarily safe, but also not completely contrary to the course of the game. Xhaka is upset after the end of the game at SRF: “We played a good first half. But we just have to be more precise and consistent in front of goal. the last pass was missing “.
And let’s go back to Xhaka’s post on Instagram before the start. Switzerland were delighted with her attractive and offensive style of play, at least in the first half.
On Sunday against Germany, the national team should be more defensive again.
