The Faroese handball fairytale continues! The U20 Faroe Islands national team becomes the first to defeat a Danish national team in a competitive match in any of the big team sports in the history (handball, football, basketball, volleyball or ice hockey)! Amazing performance!

Personally think you have to stick with Tavares for Saturday at least. He showed earlier in the season he can do a decent job. If Partey is out, which is very likely, you can't be moving Xhaka out of midfield as well to cover as a makeshift full-back.
