Cracking game going on here.
First 1 nil to the Swiss then 2-1 Serbia & now back tied at 2-2. Not even halftime yet.
Serbia have to win to stand a chance of going through, and they're playing like it.

This is a cracking game. 3-2 Switzerland.
Only downside is that the commentary on ITV4 is ahead of the actual game time bizarrely.

Kostic is such a good player to watch.
He’s everything we were promised Matt Jarvis would be.

All kicking off, Xhaka in the middle of it as usual
Not watching, but all this is political for sure. I also highly doubt Vlahović grabbing his genitals was related to personal matters...

In the first instance of it kicking off, Xhaka very discretely did the same thing right in front of the Serbian bench, causing the coaching staff / subs to invade and go immediately for him.
Surely something with Xhaka's family history / Kosovo
Anyway that was a great game, congrats to the Swiss who will take on Portugal

Xhaka and Shaqiri celebrated their goals 4 years ago by making the panalbanian sign of the two headed eagle with their hands. This match couldn't be about anything else.

Shaqiri isn’t an automatic starter for Switzerland these days, but there was no doubt he would be today given the history

Especially against a colourful Swiss team, with a couple of players with Albanian roots.
They were all over them, and imploded in spectacular fashion. Well done.
