The group summit with Holland in Lausanne? Is checked. The 2: 2 at the Stade de la Tuilière showed Mauro Lustrinelli: This team is on the right track! The U21 national team plays bold, dynamic, and dominant at times. “But we weren’t perfect either,” emphasizes the Swiss head coach, meaning primarily that the 2-0 lead was lost.
Lustrinelli knows: The upcoming European Championship qualifying problem in Bulgaria will be a game of truth. It will show how far his team has actually come – and how it can cope with even more difficult compulsory tasks. The Holland game was the first acid test after two previous duels with the hopelessly inferior Gibraltarians (total score 8: 0). Now you need a threesome in Sofia to keep the ambitious Bulgarians and group favorite Holland at a distance.
“It’s going to be a complicated game. Bulgaria absolutely wants to beat us! “Warns Lustrinelli, but promises:” We want the opposite as well – and we will be ready for this task. ” (mpe)
