FC Winterthur head coach Bruno Berner has defied the odds to keep his side safe in the Swiss Super League this season.
Despite a narrow 2-1 final day defeat to Champions, Young Boys, Berner’s men finished in 9th place, leaving Sion to take bottom spot and face a relegation/promotion play-off match against Stade Lausanne Ouchy, over two legs.
Winterthur won promotion last season themselves from the Challenge League, so retaining their status in the top flight, despite being arguably the smallest club in the division, is another incredible achievement for Berner on his impressive coaching resume.
