In Nils Nielsen’s team, Svenja Fölmli (19) from SC Freiburg has one of Switzerland’s greatest hopes for a storm in the starting line-up. In June she scored two goals for FC Luzern to win the cup and is now supposed to ensure that the Swiss women’s goal account continues to be filled.
But that is easier said than done. The Romanian defense bar can hardly be cracked, it only becomes dangerous after the balls are at rest. For example with Ramona Bachmann’s (30) free kick after 39 minutes. The Paris Saint-Germain player puts the ball on the post, one of five aluminum hits. Sow comes to the margin, but the Romanian goalkeeper Andrea Paraluta (26) destroys this chance, as well as many others.
Break tea helped
After the break, however, it only takes two and a half minutes for record national player Ana-Maria Crnogorčević (31) to head the Swiss women into the lead. The hit seems to motivate, and chances follow every minute. But Paraluta shows an excellent game and keeps her team in the game.
Gaëlle Thalmann (35) in the Schweizer Tor can and must never excel. On the other hand, the Swiss women end up sinning. In the end, when it comes to shots on goal, it’s 13: 1. As nice as the relationship looks, it is annoying at the same time. While Italy beat Croatia 3-0, the Swiss miss to do something for the goal difference as well. The second hit succeeds, but only in the 90th minute. Crnogorčević is successful from the point. Switzerland is one goal ahead of the Italians at the top of the table.
The Nati will have the chance to compensate for the missed opportunities next Tuesday against Croatia (7 p.m.).
