In the second round of Group A of the UEFA Europa League, the duel between Scotland and Switzerland was exceptionally fierce. The Scottish team, having learned a lesson from the last round's disastrous defeat, is going all out in this campaign, intending to strike first and wait for the opportunity to counterattack. The Swiss team, despite holding three points, does not seem to be relaxing and is expected to go all out, with the whole team as tough as a millstone, and is expected to score more than 2.5 goals.
Scotland's big 5-1 loss to Germany in their opening match at the Euros may seem like an accurate prediction. Observe the wave changes and you'll see Scotland's initial tactical blunder, despite looking solid on the defensive end, the distance between the three lines was too great, leading to an overall disconnect. Germany quickly seized the opportunity and Scotland were unable to counterattack effectively, the prolonged defense finally leading to a goal conceded. The team suffered a major blow when midfielder Park Dios was replaced at half-time due to the double punishment of a "red card + 12 yards". Coach Chille vowed not to make the same mistake again, and planned to first stabilize the defense, stabilize the positional play to avoid conceding too early, and then launch the fatal strike at the critical moment.
Switzerland earned valuable time to relax as they beat Hungary 3-1 in the opening round of the tournament. Hungary started nervously and conceded an early goal to disrupt their tactical deployment, while Switzerland took advantage of the situation to take the three points. While they may have ambitions for first place as well, qualification will be solid as long as they don't lose. Moreover, the Swiss have been in solid form, scoring no more than six goals in six of their last eight matches. So it seems that they need not be anxious, let alone panic about fighting.
