Only the international break could stop his career! FCZ interim coach Massimo Rizzo (46) led the team without winning for months on three triples in three games. Nine points in two weeks: After a 15-day hiatus from Nati, Rizzo now awaits his fourth mission on the sidelines of Zurich, where President Ancillo Canepa will leave him until at least the winter break.
Zurich has to go to Zion on Sunday. For Valais it will be the return of the Super League after 35 days of forced rupture of Corona. “We didn’t think about whether or not Sion could train. It is a physically present, aggressive and defensively strong team, ”says Rizzo.
No FCZ coach had a better start
For him, it is the opportunity to immortalize himself even more impressive in the history books of FCZ. Because with three wins in three games in the Super League era (since 2003) no FCZ coach has started his new job. Especially not at four. Neither Urs Fischer, nor Bernard Challandes, nor Rolf Fringer and certainly not Lucien Favre – the Zurich maestro and current BVB coach is the only Zurich coach in the last 17 years to be without a victory in the first four games.
Rizzo points to the fourth win in a row: “Of course it is an honor to be compared to these great names from the FCZ past. But I’m especially happy for the team that we were able to get three wins at the beginning. “
“I take game after game”
Despite the winning streak: Rizzo stays true to his understatement course. “I really work that way,” says the FCZ veteran, “I take game after game and I don’t look to the future. Why should I think about St. Gallen before Zion’s game? “The appearance in Valais is worrying the former U-18 manager a bit.
Defense chief Lasse Sobiech is questionable, in addition to the Aiyegun Tosin banned in red, the new lighter Ousmane Doumbia is also banned in yellow: he was previously charged from Winterthur times.
