After three defeats in the first three Nations League games, one might think that winning a point would be a success for Switzerland. The players aren’t really happy with the 2-2 draw against Denmark. There are several reasons for this.
“It just sucks,” says Fabian Rieder after the 2-2 draw against Denmark. The 22-year-old midfielder is one of three newcomers in the starting line-up compared to the weak performance in Serbia on Saturday (0:2). The Bundesliga professional was annoyed about missing a win in the fourth Nations League game. «We wanted to show a reaction and played a good game. But in the end we are left with one point again and that is not enough for us and our ambitions,” says Rieder, who is not alone in this view.
