Petkovic: “You won't see two more penalties for Ramos”

Switzerland coach Vladimir Petkovic praised his team's play, which achieved a draw against Spain on the penultimate round of the Nations League, especially highlighting the performance of its goalkeeper, Yann Sommer, who avoided two goals from 'La Roja' stopping both penalties thrown by Sergio Ramos.

We have imposed our game from minute 15, and the goal and the advantage in the first half have been deserved. In the second half it was a nice game for the spectators, but not so much for the coaches. It hurts me that at the best moment we have not done the two to zero. We have played Spain at the same level, and it is to be happy. We can play head-to-head against rivals like the Spanish, which is good news, “Petkovic said.

“The draw leaves us in a position not to lose the category in the 'Nations League'. Now we depend on beating Ukraine, but it is our option. We are not in the hands of third teams. That a goalkeeper stops two penalties in the same game does not happen every day, and less against a pitcher, like Sergio Ramos, that he hadn't missed the last twenty he had thrown away. It is something that is not going to be repeated. In addition, Ramos has not failed. The goalkeeper has stopped them“added the Swiss coach.
