Before the final match of Group A - EURO 2024 took place early this morning (June 24), the German team became the first name to win a ticket to the round of 16 with a perfect record. However, when facing the Swiss team, the home team still took the field with the strongest force.
In the first half, the German team completely controlled the game. Coach Julian Nagelsmann's team had almost twice as much possession as their opponents (66%, compared to Switzerland's 34%). The number of passes that Toni Kroos and his teammates created was also twice as much as that of Switzerland (375 compared to 167). The German team created 19 attacks, while Switzerland only had 7 attacks. However, the results in the first 45 minutes of play went against the above parameters.
Robert Andrich got the ball into the Swiss net in the first half, but the goal was disallowed.
In the 17th minute, Robert Andrich unleashed a powerful shot into the Swiss net. However, after VAR intervention, the goal was disallowed for Germany because Musiala had previously fouled an opposing player.
Although the Swiss team had to play defensively, they were more effective in attack. In the 28th minute, after a very smooth combination, Freuler crossed from the left wing for Ndoye to tap the ball in dangerously to open the score for the Swiss team. The score of 1-0 in favor of Switzerland remained until the match entered the break.
Ndoye cushioned the ball to beat goalkeeper Neuer, opening the score for the Swiss team.

In the second half, the German team continued to attack and create many storms towards the Swiss goal. However, all the home team could do before the 90th minute was Kai Havertz's header that hit the opponent's goal.
On the other hand, the Swiss team played a strong defense. Murat Yakin's team also created dangerous situations that made German fans' hearts skip a beat. In the 84th minute, Vargas ran down to face and put the ball into the German team's net but was offside before that. In the 88th minute, Xhaka shot very hard from a distance, forcing goalkeeper Neuer to fly to block.
Fullkrug (9) headed the ball in, keeping 1 point for the German team.
It was not until the 90+2 minute that substitute striker Niclas Fullkrug, who came off the bench, made the stadium explode with an excellent aerial header into the Swiss net, equalizing the score at 1-1. This was also the final score of the match.
With this result, the German team advanced to the next round with the first place in Group A and an unbeaten record (2 wins, 1 draw). Meanwhile, the Swiss team entered the round of 16 with the second place in Group A with 5 points, also unbeaten (1 win, 2 draws).
