In the end it was an act of will on the part of the people of Basel. For the first time with coach Ciriaco Sforza, Rotblau can also bring a victory in the finals. With that, Red-Blue scored the top three of the new season. FCB beat Lucerna 3-2.
“We absolutely wanted to keep all three points here in Basel. We did everything for it. Surely not everything is perfect yet. But today we show passion, “said Silvan Widmer after the game. His coach also liked what was shown: “That was also the case in the last games. We play forward and we have opportunities. That means the team has fun and power, ”says Ciriaco Sforza.
Unnecessary goals conceded
However: the guest from the center of Switzerland can even the score twice. Again, the FCB fan has to tremble until the final whistle if Basler will leave the field as the winner. That annoys Ciriaco Sforza: “We have too simple goals. That cannot happen in the future. That can be a mental story. We will analyze that ».
The first goal was conceded after a deflected shot. Basler’s second goal comes out of the crowd after a corner kick. Right-back Silvan Widmer also discusses a bit the lack of luck in these situations: “The goals were unnecessary. There was certainly a bit of bad luck. Except for the two goals, they hardly had a chance. If we act smarter and score another goal towards the end of the game, then we will go home. But then you have to fight to the end.
Reaction to the end
This allows Rotblau to react to the bitter defeat during the week against CSKA Sofia and the elimination from the Europa League qualification. The focus was the problem until the game against Lucerna. Silvan Widmer also sees it this way: “We had too much lack of concentration there. Today we took a first step. Not everything is perfect yet, but we are on the right track. “
The coach agrees: “It is mentally important. We played well in the last games. We played very well against Sofia for 70 minutes and then we left the game in ten minutes. But today the team has shown that it can come back even in a difficult phase. That you can find the next gear, ”says Sforza.
