Nansi into nge-BC Place kusihlwa: ithebula le-xG lithi iCanada 1.34, iSwitzerland 1.06 — nokho iSwitzerland ihambe nomzuzu wokuwina ka-2-1. Izinombolo zasho into eyodwa. Ibhodi lezikolo lasho enye. Siyakwamukela ebholeni. Ingxenye yokuqala bekungumbukiso weSwitzerland — futhi owokukhohlisa. Babephethe ibhola ngama-70%, bahambisa ibhola ngokubekezela okucophelelayo, futhi babebukeka bekulungele ukuphula ukulingana. Kodwa amathuba amakhulu amathathu afika ahamba, amabili aqinile esigabeni "sokumele ashaye". ICanada, ebambeke kuma-30% okuphethwa kwebhola, yayibambelele — kodwa uGregor Kobel ngemuva kwabo wayengenalutho okumele akwenze. U-0-0 owawungajabulisi muntu. Bese umdlalo uphenduka ngokuphelele. URubén Vargas washaya iCanada ngemuva nje komzuzu wokuqala — 1-0 ngaphambi kokuba abasingathi bazinze. UJohan Manzambi wengeza owesibili ngomzuzu ka-57, futhi ngokungazelele iSwitzerland yaba nomcamelo wamagoli amabili owakhiwe ngokuqedela okucophelelayo kunokubusa okungapheli. Ukuphethwa kwebhola kweCanada engxenyeni yesibili kwenyukela kuma-60%, bacindezela, bathola amakhona ayisikhombisa — futhi namanje abakwazanga ukuwuphula kuze kube uPromise David, ngemuva nje kokuza njengomsubstitute, washaya elilodwa ngomzuzu ka-76. Umthelela wokuqala owawufanele umvuzo omkhulu. Iphutha lokuvikela leSwitzerland lalingokoqobo: uma iCanada isithole isigqi sokushintsha, kwavela izikhala. UGranit Xhaka — obhukhelwe ekushintshaneni okushisayo phakathi nendawo ngomzuzu ka-32 — wabukeka elulekile njengoba ukuqina kweCanada kwakukhula. ISwitzerland yasinda ngomcamelo wayo nangobuhlakani bukaKobel: ukusindisa okuyisithupha, isilinganiso esingu-8.46, umdlali ongaphikiswa womdlalo. Msuse futhi lo mphumela cishe uyashintsha. Inkinga yeCanada? Ukushintshwa kathathu ngomzuzu ka-58 kwakunesibindi kodwa kwalahlekelwa isikhathi esiyigugu — izingcezu ezintsha zidinga imizuzu engu-15 ukuze zizitholele izinyawo, futhi ngaleso sikhathi umonakalo wawusuwenziwe. Ithuba elilodwa elikhulu elilahlekile lapho isikolo sase sikhona u-2-0 yisikhathi esibuhlungu kakhulu. Ku-FootLegion, amagoli izwe lakho eliwashayayo kuleNdebe Yomhlaba awawenu phakade — akekho owathathayo. Manje, emazwaneni: Ingabe uKobel wayengumehluko phakathi kokuwina kweSwitzerland nokulingana kweCanada? Futhi ingabe isikhathi sokushintshwa kweCanada sabalahlekisela iphuzu ababelifanele ngokwezibalo?
