Start stagnant, but come back

Switzerland’s strongest team now, Basel FC, is very close to qualifying in the UEFA Champions League. Nothing in a relatively approachable group, with Manchester United, TSKA Moscow and Benfica, the Swiss have done so tremendously. Although both the UCL and the championship debut, where they once stood at the 6th position, were not impressive, things have changed. Basel went to Benfica (5-0) on “St. Jakob-Park, “to manage a real TSKA football lesson, even in Moscow, where the Russians did not manage to send even a hundred on the gate.

In the crisis

Only one success in the last eight matches played in all competitions, TSKA Moscow is officially in the crisis. With an average almost embarrassing of exactly one goal scored in the championship match, the Muscovites are still ranked third in the hierarchy, taking advantage of the mediocrity level reached by the “Russian Premier League”. Even so, nothing is still lost. TSKA can still turn the fate of this group A into the UCL, in the context it could catch up to the 2nd place. Obviously, this would not be possible without a victory Tuesday night at Basel, which is hard to believe, weighing the moment of the two groups.
