The team beat Germany 1: 1

Switzerland get their first point in the second game of the Nations League. Vladimir Petkovic’s team separates 1: 1 from Germany in Basel after a good performance.

Ilkay Gündogan scored the opening goal for the guests in the 14th minute. The Manchester City midfielder struck from the edge of the area with a low shot. Silvan Widmer, who scored 1-1 in the 57th minute after a good preparatory work by Granit Xhaka and Breel Embolo, worried about the Swiss draw.

The two teams had an intense exchange of blows in empty St. Jakob Park, in which both teams created several good scoring chances. In the final stages, Switzerland was closer to victory. A Granit Xhaka header missed the goal (91st).

After just one point from the two games in Ukraine (1: 2) and now against Germany, the SFV team is at the bottom of the table after the campaign has started and is under pressure in the next games. In October, they face Spain in Madrid before the second leg against Germany in Cologne.
