Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! England welcome Switzerland for this crunch clash at Merkur Spiel-Arena.
  • 5' England looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Bukayo Saka scoring 1 goals.
  • 10' Switzerland fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 20' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with England winning 100% of all matches.
  • 25' Switzerland started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 25.
  • 30' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 32' A moment of madness from Fabian Schar on 32 minutes earns him a card. Switzerland will be frustrated.
  • 37' It looks like no one’s ball. Switzerland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 42' The home supporters are growing impatient. England must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 47' Switzerland are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.

  • 57' The energy levels are beginning to show. Gareth Southgate might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 62' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Fabian Rieder suffering a number of foals already.
  • 64' It is a substitution in Switzerland team. Fabian Rieder is replaced by Steven Zuber on 64 minute.
  • 67' A moment of madness from Harry Kane on 67 minutes earns him a card. England will be frustrated.

  • 85' Switzerland receives a card for a hard tackle on 85.
  • 90' Switzerland come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • Switzerland will have plenty to reflect on. England were simply the better side today.
