SWITZERLAND


No major players
With the same style as always
Switzerland finished second in Group 4 and needed to beat Turkey in the second round to go on to the World Cup in Germany. It has been 12 years since the Swiss participated in this competition – the last one was in the United States in 1994. Kobi Kuhn does not have major players on his team, but the good teamwork in recent matches builds up hopes for better performances.
