Highlights

The game got off to a rapid start, with the Swiss defense unable to cope with Vladimr Coufal's long throw, allowing Jan Kutcha to tap in at the far post against the run of play.

As the hosts pushed for a second goal, Yann Sommer made a fantastic stop to deny Jakub Jankto, but it was all square on the stroke of half-time when Noah Okafor smashed home from close range.

Switzerland opened the second half on the front foot, but Coufal's shot hit the post before Jankto's cross took a big deflection from Djibril Sow and looped past Sommer to give his team the lead.
