Switzerland's 2-1 win over Slovenia in Lucerne: Kobel calls start a 'horror show,' Freuler praises comeback

bluewin.ch (German) —

Switzerland defeated Slovenia 2-1 in Lucerne, with goalkeeper Gregor Kobel calling the start a "horror start" while Remo Freuler praised the team's reaction to secure the win. Kobel noted Slovenia exploited space behind the defense early, attributing the slow start to fatigue from a third game in a short period, but praised the team's composure, especially the young players. Freuler acknowledged the performance was not their best, citing poor counter-attack stopping, but highlighted the character shown in the comeback. Johan Manzambi confirmed his knee is fine after a hard tackle, stating the team was prepared for Slovenia's physical play and had trained to break down a deep defensive block, which helped them score two goals.
