England vs Switzerland Quarter Final, UEFA Euro 2024 Live: After a bleak first-half, England and Switzerland finished 1-1 in regulation time as Bukayo Saka cancelled the advantage Breel Embolo gave Switzerland to make it 1-1.
In a clash of contrasting styles, form and history, England will aim to shrug off their shoddy run in the early stages of the tournament to make the last four. Ahead of his 100th match in charge of the side, potentially his last, Gareth Southgate’s team broke out of jail in the dying minutes, thanks to Jude Bellingham’s heroics and skipper Harry Kane’s winner against Slovakia in the Round of 16. Southgate’s timid tactics and watchful play have copped criticism. Switzerland will be high on confidence after dumping Italy out from the Round of 16. However, the Swiss have not beaten England in over 40 years as they target to go one rung above from their quarterfinal showing at Euro 2020.
Starting XI – England: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Konsa; Trippier, Rice, Mainoo, Saka; Foden, Bellingham, Kane; Subs: Ramsdale, Henderson, Shaw, Alexander-Arnold, Dunk, Gallagher, Toney, Gordon, Watkins, Bowen, Eze, Gomez, Palmer, Wharton; Switzerland: Sommer, Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez, Ndoye, Freuler, Xhaka, Aebischer, Rieder, Vargas, Embolo; Subs: Stergiou, Widmer, Elvedi, Zakaria, Okafor, Steffen, Mvogo, Zuber, Zesiger, Sierro, Duah, Kobel, Shaqiri, Jashari, Amdouni
