England’s best player so far in the Euros, Jude Bellingham, will not be suspended in tonight's quarter final against Switzerland. He will be fined for his gesture after he scored against SlovakiaI. The Swiss are full of confidence after they beat Italy and England better watch out!
England was in big trouble against Slovakia being down one to nothing deep into stoppage time then Bellingham stepped up as the saviour and equalised six minutes into stoppage time. Harry Kane sealed the deal very early in extra time and England we’re through to the quarters. The Swiss had a matchup with their neighbours and big brother in football, Italy. The Swiss said enough is enough and defeated Italy for the first time in 31 years in a major competition. Freuler and Vagas scored the goals.
England won their group with one win and two draws but they didn’t impress anyone with their performances. Bellingham was great in the first twenty minutes against a weak Serbian side. Bellingham scored the only goal in that game. England went on to draw against both Denmark and Slovenia. Switzerland went through their group in a similar manner with one win and two draws. They defeated Hungary and drew with Scotland and Germany. Their performances was more impressive with a lot of speed and good ball movement.
The Swiss squad is very organised and the engine of the team is at their central midfield. Freuler and Xhaka have been dominating at the midfield throughout the tournament and the two are a big part of Switzerland being a very organised side. With Bellingham on the pitch England has the personnel to compete with these two in Dusseldorf tonight. Bellingham is the key on the pitch for the English side to be able to control the midfield. England has scored four goals so far at the Euros 2024. Bellingham has scored two of them.
The Swiss coach Murat Yakin will be having Widmer back after he was suspended against Italy. The team is full of confidence and they haven't lost in their last eight games. Ndoye would move to the bench if Widmer starts. England will miss Marc Guehi due to suspension. Ezri Konsa will replace him.
