We have nothing to lose against Switzerland, says national team head coach

National team head coach Bernd Storck is banking on his side producing a performance in Saturday’s World Cup qualifier in Basel similar to the one they gave in September against Portugal.

The Hungarian national team takes on Switzerland – who top the group with a 100% record – in Basel this Saturday before taking on the Faroe Islands at home three days later in their final 2018 World Cup qualifier.

Bernd Storck’s squad has been training together at Telki since Sunday,

with Le Havre right-back Barnabás Bese joining the rest of the team on Tuesday following his club’s match on Monday evening.

“We’re really looking forward to the two upcoming matches, especially the game against Switzerland” began Storck at Monday afternoon’s press conference. “Switzerland have won all eight qualifiers so far, and thus it will be a big challenge to play against them. We’re going into the match with optimism;

I’m sure we can produce a similar performance to the ones we gave against Latvia and Portugal”.
