We are in the Swiss Cup Finals!
Ladies and Gentlemen
Tonight is a memorable evening: for the 10th time during its 97 years of existence the FC Sion - THE valaisanne soccer club has made it to the Swiss Cup Finals! - For those of you who might not know: Valais is the state I was born and raised in.
Tonight we won against FC Winterthur with 1:0, so we will be playing against FC Young Boys- the Bernese club on Easter Monday! Yihaa!
Usually I'm not an extreme Valaisanne patriot, however I'm a big fan of the FC Sion. For nearly ten years, we had to go through tough times, but now we are BACK!
We have never lost a Swiss Cup Final ever, so the legend must go on also this year!
Tomorrow I will investigate how I can buy tickets, I absolutely have to go and see the game! It will be crazy for sure, half of our canton (state) will be in Berne and the stadium will be dominated by white and red- the colours of our team and the colours of our cantonal flag...
For those of you, who are not Swiss- in Switzerland your identity is mainly defined by the state (canton) you come from, so in the first place I'm Valaisanne and then I'm Swiss...And tonight I'm even more proud to be Valaisanne! Allez Sion!
