Thun wasn't the first swiss team to reach the champion's league group stages. There were others such as Grasshoppers and FC Basel who reached the second group stages in 2002. Thun also never drew against Ajax (2-0 and 4-2), their only points were the win against Prague and the away draw against Prague. Thun are now 4th with 13th points from 7 games in the Challenge League.
ls7 You're right. Not sure what I was thinking about in overlooking Basel at the time of this article. I've removed the line about Thun being first. Thanks for pointing that out.
