Despite several cases of crown with the opponent, the German team can play in the League of Nations against Ukraine on Saturday night.
About four hours before the scheduled start at 8:45 p.m., the Ukrainian association announced that the 35 tests ordered by players, coaches and supervisors on match day had yielded a negative result, as announced by the Ukrainian association. The Leipzig health authorities had done more PCR tests as a prerequisite for the game to be playable. This will be played without spectators at Red Bull Arena.
On Friday, four players and the Ukraine coach tested positive for the corona virus after arriving in Leipzig. The Leipzig health authorities had not imposed a team quarantine on Saturday morning, but only recommended further tests and followed up with the actors who tested positive. According to the association, national coach Andrei Shevchenko now has 20 players in his reduced squad available against the DFB team.
Furthermore, there were no grounds for UEFA to cancel a match, as announced by the German Football Association. “We trust the health authorities who have worked hard. During the game, the risk of infection is much lower than in the environment, which is easier to control. Furthermore, the double negative test is reassuring, most recently even in the afternoon before the game, ”explained DFB team doctor Tim Meyer in the DFB announcement.
Swiss hope of a winner
In the DFB team, all the crown tests were negative on Saturday. Had it been rejected, Germany probably would have gotten the points at the Green Table. Now the decision in group 4 of the A-League of the Nations League will be made in a sporting way.
The game is also extremely important for the Swiss national team. If there is a points split in the game between Germany and Ukraine, Switzerland needs a win against Spain (also Saturday night at 8:45 pm) to maintain relegation hopes in League A. If the match in Leipzig ends with a victory at home or away, Nati still has a chance with a draw against the Spanish. But Switzerland definitely has to score today.
At the end of the day, Switzerland will face the possibly decisive match against Ukraine on Tuesday. Germany must compete in Spain at the same time.
