England Vs Switzerland Highlights Full Match: Switzerland Vs England
UEFA Euro 2024 Quarter Final ENG Vs SUI Highlights: The condemning headlines were almost filed, knee-jerk social media reactions prepared and clamours for a new manager half typed out as Gareth Southgate’s England tenure seemed set to end with a whimper against Slovakia. Yet the Three Lions somehow made it to the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.
Switzerland await on Saturday in Düsseldorf, where England must improve on their largely toothless last-16 performance against Slovakia that almost resulted in a humiliating exit.
Ivan Schranz’s cool first-half finish had Francesco Calzona’s side on course for a mammoth upset until Jude Bellingham – of course – saved the day with England’s latest regular-time goal in European Championship history.
Timed at 94 minutes and 34 seconds, Bellingham’s salvation act would have been enough to toast England’s new hero, yet the manner he did it in was even more impressive. An acrobatic overhead kick sent the game to extra-time on Sunday before Harry Kane scored just 50 seconds into the additional 30 minutes to snatch a 2-1 victory.
From seemingly down and out, England kept their hopes in Germany alive and, in turn, staved off the awaiting criticism – Declan Rice insisted after the game his side would do “anything to protect” manager Southgate.
