Switzerland’s 2-0 victory over Italy in the European Cup Round of 16 early this morning has sparked panic among England fans.
Switzerland completely dominated the reigning champion Italy in this match. Italy had almost no chances throughout the match, while Switzerland controlled the game and scored one goal in each half to advance strongly. In the group stage, Switzerland also performed well, defeating Hungary 3-1 and drawing with Germany and Scotland, finishing the group stage unbeaten. Switzerland’s excellent performance has caused English fans who may face them to be worried.
One England fan said, “I think Switzerland could easily beat England if they want to advance.” Another fan added, “Looking at their current performance, Switzerland is indeed stronger than England.” A third fan commented, “People have been saying England has a better chance of reaching the final, but I don’t think we’re likely to beat Switzerland.”
A fan named Moore said, “If we beat Slovakia tomorrow, England should be very worried about the match against Switzerland. Tactically, Switzerland is much stronger than England.” BBC commentator Richards said, “I was very excited before, but now I don’t feel as confident.” Lineker added, “England will definitely be hit.”
However, Ferdinand remains confident in England: “If I were in the England team now, I would be too excited to sleep with this draw. I would respect all other teams, but we have a great chance. This is the best opportunity to reach the final.”
England will next face Slovakia. If they beat their opponents, their next opponent will be Switzerland.
