A largely uneventful first half in Lens was punctuated by a moment of magic from Welsh superstar Gareth Bale, as he hit a free-kick from distance that beat Joe Hart.

The story of the match was French manager Didier Deschamps dropping Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann from the starting XI and going with a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Through one and a half games Switzerland were one of the least impressive teams at Euro 2016 in France. They were outplayed in their first match against a 10 men Albania side, and it’s very easy to say they would not have gotten all three points had Albania had 11 men the whole match. To […]
