Michel Pont has been working with the Swiss national team since 2001 as Assistant Coach to Ottmar Hitzfeld, coach of the Swiss national team. Because players in the Swiss national team are French- and German-language speaking, Ottmar Hitzfeld and Michael Pont had to resolve the language barrier. Usually, there is a lot of pressure when you speak to players before or during a match, so full understanding is key, and Michel Pont was the right man to lead with Ottmar Hitzfeld to lead the Swiss national team to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
