Wearing an ironic cap reminiscent of Donald Trump’s famous “Make America Great Again”, the Vaudois displayed the words in English “Switzerland Great Since 1291”. A fun clothing choice that immediately set social media on fire.
The President of the Confederation then joined FIFA boss Gianni Infantino to watch Switzerland qualify 2-0 for the round of 16. “Proud to be present alongside our national team,” rejoiced Guy Parmelin on his X account.
