Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Switzerland gets underway.
  • 5' It’s high time Gareth Southgate made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' England looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Bukayo Saka scoring 1 goals.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' The travelling Switzerland supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 25' It looks like no one’s ball. England is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 32' Fabian Schar is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
  • 37' Dan Ndoye needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 42' 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.
  • 47' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Switzerland needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 52' It looks surprising Switzerland does not make any changes. Fabian Rieder has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 57' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 62' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 64' Steven Zuber has so much to prove this time. He replaces Fabian Rieder on 64 minute.
  • 67' The referee shows England player a card on 67.
  • 72' Supporters expect more eagerness from Silvan Widmer, as he is very good at scoring at Merkur Spiel-Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 75' What a strike from Breel Embolo! The score is 0-1.
  • 78' The whistle greets Kobbie Mainoo as he departs to be replaced by Luke Shaw.
  • 80' What an equalizer from Bukayo Saka!
  • 85' That looks like a foul for a card for Silvan Widmer.
  • 90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering England that had 130 games and scored 59 goals.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 6-4.
