England vs Switzerland, EURO 2024 Live Score: ENG face SUI in the third quarterfinal in Dusseldorf.
England vs Switzerland Quarter Final, UEFA Euro 2024 Live: England lock horns with Switzerland in the third UEFA Euro 2024 quarterfinal at the Dusseldorf Arena in Dusseldorf on Saturday.
In a clash of contrasting styles, form and history, England will aim to shrug off their shoddy run in the early stages of the tournament to make the last four. Ahead of his 100th match in charge of the side, potentially his last, Gareth Southgate’s team broke out of jail in the dying minutes, thanks to Jude Bellingham’s heroics and skipper Harry Kane’s winner against Slovakia in the Round of 16. Southgate’s timid tactics and watchful play have copped criticism. Switzerland will be high on confidence after dumping Italy out from the Round of 16. However, the Swiss have not beaten England in over 40 years as they target to go one rung above from their quarterfinal showing at Euro 2020.
Starting XI – England: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Konsa; Trippier, Rice, Mainoo, Saka; Foden, Bellingham, Kane; Subs: Ramsdale, Henderson, Shaw, Alexander-Arnold, Dunk, Gallagher, Toney, Gordon, Watkins, Bowen, Eze, Gomez, Palmer, Wharton; Switzerland: Sommer, Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez, Ndoye, Freuler, Xhaka, Aebischer, Rieder, Vargas, Embolo; Subs: Stergiou, Widmer, Elvedi, Zakaria, Okafor, Steffen, Mvogo, Zuber, Zesiger, Sierro, Duah, Kobel, Shaqiri, Jashari, Amdouni

Former coach on Jude Bellingham: ‘As a kid, he watched his dad get kicked all over the place’
On ITV’s This Morning show, a guest didn’t hold back when the possibility of Jude Bellingham being banned for England’s quarterfinals against Switzerland was discussed.
“UEFA’s headquarters are in Switzerland. If they ban Jude, we burn the place to the ground,” the guest fumed. His comment captured the mood of the nation days before the clash on Saturday night, especially about their undisputed star.
If not for the 21-year-old’s splendid, 95th-minute bicycle kick in the Round of 16 clash against Slovakia, a sub-par England would have been on the flight back home. The goal, his celebration, and the comeback it sparked only added to the hype around Bellingham. READ MORE
