2022 FIFA World Cup: Who is the captain for Switzerland?
The FIFA World Cup 2022 tournament, one of the most important sporting events, is only a few days away! As the days pass, football fans are growing increasingly excited and hyped for this unforgettable event. A total of 32 teams have qualified for this important football title, with Switzerland being one of them.
Switzerland performed admirably in the previous edition of the FIFA World Cup, making it out of the group stage. This time, the team has been assigned to Group G, which includes Brazil, Serbia, and Cameroon. It will be difficult for the Switzerland squad to get from the group stages to the knockout rounds.
As Switzerland’s World Cup captain, Granit Xhaka will lead the team. He has been a member of the squad for a long time, appearing in 104 games and scoring two goals. This Arsenal midfielder is expected to lead the team to the knockout stages.
Switzerland will compete in the World Cup for the 12th time, having previously reached the quarter-finals three times and been ousted in round 16 three times in the prior four tournaments.
Switzerland had their best achievements in the early editions of the FIFA World Cup, reaching the quarter-finals in 1934, 1938, and 1954.
