Swiss never really bring excitement to a tournament

Harsh. Per international standards, not many sides bring much fluid football. They're punching regularly above their weight and getting the most out of their personnel.

Another class goal

Vargas with a goal and assist in 15 minutes. How Ndoye who did absolutely naff all except a fancy bicycle kick started ahead of Vargas is baffling.

 

You could say it was the right decision given the impact, but the difference is quite stark.

Make that three goal contributions in 20 minutes. Supersub.

[Leicesterpool]

Swiss turned it round in that second half, must have read my comment in the half time break 

[Lionator]

I know they’re down to 10 but the Swiss have been damn hot this last 20 mins

[RowlattsFox]

Still a good chance Bosnia go through if they beat Qatar.

 

[Raj]

Good player that black kid upfront.

 

Be great in league 1 for us!!

[StanSP]

Strike! 

[spacemunky]

Game on! 

[RowlattsFox]

Wow. Hope they don't look for an offside in front of the keeper

[Tommy Fresh]

Slapped that in

[filbertway]

How's that gone through about 8 bodies haha

Great hit to be fair to the lad

[spacemunky]

Amazing that got through.

[PhillippaT]

Alrighty then! Too late, but still...

[StanSP]

No one saw 4 goals coming in this game at half time

 

[RowlattsFox]

Thought it looked nailed on but it is a dive

[StanSP]

Minimal contact on the back leg but he was falling already... 

[ramboacdc]

Was honestly about to turn this off as it was boring me only 15 minutes ago....

[RowlattsFox]

Not letting the kid have a go at a hatrrick is a bit shit

[spacemunky]

I guess we will need to score some goals then.

I wish they’d stop giving these penalties, just because there’s contact doesn’t mean it’s a pen, wasn’t enough to send him down and as you say was already on his way.

[Super_horns]

 That game really escalated after the

Swiss subs and drinks break .

 

A goal seemed unlikely let alone 5.

Clear free kick anywhere else on the pitch. Rules are no different inside the box, which is why you don't go flying into tackles there. You learn this in the U-8s.

You’ll face harder tackles at u8’s and not go down.

Good to see Larin starting up top along side David for this one.
