Switzerland
Algeria


Despite Switzerland being a incredibly boring country to me i was quite excited for this game as it really felt like a 55/45 type game. Gotta say i was disappointed by the first half though, just not enough happening really besides the goal. But what a goal it was, great assist from Manzambi and Embolo had a easy goal from there. What a player Manzambi is, so so so excited for his future, hopefully he makes a intelligent transfer instead of going for the biggest bag of money. What a way to start the second half though to score within a minute. Great goal from Ndoye. Algeria just making too many mistakes and they get punished for it. Absolutely shocking miss from Rieder, how that didnt go in is just insane. Its mostly just a boring game though with not too much happening. Switzerland have finally won a knockout game again on the World Cup, last time was in 1938 so this is incredible for them. Embolo the first Swiss player to score multiple goals on two different World Cup tournaments so thats pretty cool. Man of the match is Denis Zakaria for me, very good defensively and also created a big chance, just a great game from him. Much shorter than last review but a lot less happened, and i’m tired lmao. (I say much shorter but it still ended up being 1300 characters)

Do you think this Swiss team will go any further or is this the peak of their tournament?
@rebbernal I am not Lucas but assuming Colombia progresses tomorrow I highly doubt Switzerland are able to get past them
@harris Correct, Colombia looks so much better
