Der Krisen-Verein ruft einen alten Helden zur Hilfe.
Nach der zweiten Niederlage in Folge, ausgerechnet gegen direkte Keller-Konkurrenz Winterthur, brodelt es bei den Zürchnern. Der Schweizer Rekordmeister taumelt weiter Richtung Abgrund – und zieht jetzt die Notbremse!
Sportchef Stephan Schwarz (54) muss nach nur 13 Monaten seinen Platz räumen. Am Montagmittag wird seine Entlassung publik – und am Abend folgt schon der nächste Paukenschlag: Alain Sutter (57) wird neuer Sportchef beim Grasshopper Club Zürich (GC).
Müller mit Zigarre: Meister-Party mit Bayern-Stars gefilmt
Sutter ist kein Unbekannter im Letzigrund: Mit GC wurde er Meister, holte Pokale, prägte eine Ära. Auch in der Bundesliga hat sich Sutter einen Namen gemacht. Als Spieler beim FC Bayern kickte er unter Giovanni Trapattoni in München.
Jetzt soll er retten, was noch zu retten ist. Der 57-Jährige bringt Erfahrung, Charisma und jede Menge Ideen mit. Sechs Jahre lang arbeitete er zuletzt als Sportchef beim FC St. Gallen – mit Erfolg. Nun kehrt er zurück zu seinem Herzensklub, um ihn vor dem sportlichen Absturz zu bewahren.
[–>GC-Präsidentin Stacy Johns über Sutter: „Er wird mit seinem überaus grossen Erfahrungsschatz im Schweizer Fussball ein wichtiger Grundbaustein für die Zukunft des Klubs sein. Nun aber heisst es zuerst: Voller Fokus auf den Klassenerhalt!“
Auch Sutter selbst weiß, was auf dem Spiel steht: „Trotz der grossen Herausforderungen freue ich mich riesig, wieder bei GC zu sein. Ich sehe ein grosses Potenzial und glaube an das langfristige Projekt. Dieser Klub hat mir viel gegeben und ich werde alles daransetzen, dass er wieder erfolgreich wird.“
Die Lage ist ernst: GC steht auf dem drittletzten Tabellenplatz, nur vier Spiele bleiben, um den Fall in die Challenge League zu verhindern.
Wird Alain Sutter zum Retter in letzter Sekunde? Die nächsten Wochen entscheiden über das Schicksal eines Traditionsvereins.

Em jogo amarrado, Palmeiras vence o Realidade Jovem na estreia do Paulistão Feminino
Com equipe mista, Palmeiras vence o Realidade Jovem pelo Paulistão Feminino (Reprodução/Pedro Zacchi/Agência Paulistão) Pela 1ª rodada do Paulistão Feminino, o Palmeiras visitou o Realidade Jovem em São José do Rio Preto.

A técnica do Palmeiras, Camilla Orlando, levou a campo um plantel bem mexido, tendo poucas atletas que disputam o Brasileirão Feminino. Com isso, mesmo com a pressão do Palmeiras, a goleira Thamyres segurou o empate sem gols no primeiro tempo.

‘If I don’t score, I’m f—ed’: Inter UCL hero Davide Frattesi gives brutally honest take on clutch goal
Getty Images Inter Milan are in the Champions League final for the second time in the last three years after defeating Barcelona 4-3 in extra time and 7-6 on aggregate. Their victory in front of their home fans at the San Siro had something for everyone, but it was midfielder Davide Frattesi who had a moment for the ages with his unorthodox finish in the 99th minute.After getting the ball from Marcus Thuram, forward Mehdi Taremi was unselfish, playing the ball to Frattesi, who added a little trickery to his finish. Frattesi faked a shot before firing the ball right past Barcelona keeper Wojciech Szczesny for the go-ahead goal. You wouldn't have been able to tell that that was only Frattesi's seventh goal of the season or his first in eight appearances for Inter in all competitions. That last goal […]
