Reaction from head coach Murat Yakin at the Merkur Spiel-Arena in Dusseldorf on Saturday after his Switzerland side were knocked out of Euro 2024 by England at the quarter-final stage on penalties.
In a closely-fought match, Monaco forward Breel Embolo gave Switzerland the lead on 75 minutes, but Bukayo Saka of Arsenal equalised five minutes later and after the two teams could not be separated by extra time, it all came down to a shootout.
England went first and scored though Chelsea youngster Cole Palmer, then Switzerland’s Manchester City defender Manuel Akanji saw his penalty saved by Jordan Pickford.
Yann Sommer could not prevent Jude Bellingham, Saka, Ivan Toney and Trent Alexander-Arnold from converting their spot kicks and England won 5-3.
It was hard on Switzerland, who have still to reach the semi-finals of a major tournament.
They exit the European Championship on penalties in the last eight for the second time in a row after losing to Spain in similar fashion three years ago.

YOU HAVE TO FEEL FOR TÜRKEY FOR MAKING IT THIS FAR.🥺.
THE WAY SWITZERLAND CAME IN THEY WERE THE DARK HORSES IMPRESSED THEY MADE IT THAT FAR.🔥.
Was a good game of football which unfortunately one team has to lose. When England went a goal down, I must admit, I thought they were finished.
Switzerland had a good tournament
Well played to them👏👏unlucky not
to go through to the semi finals

The actual game was boring as hell, it improved when England scored a goal.
The penalty shoot out was a master class by England who deserved to win.
Switzerland just played a ring fence around there goal to prevent England scoring a goal.
4/10 lackluster game
.
A very good performance by the Swiss. Excellent tactics. Huge credit to Yakin. Very dignified in defeat. Wish him and Switzerland well going forwards.
The Swiss were not better or in control. The had a bright period in the 2nd half the rest of the time they were chasing the ball. The also were not defending saka effectively as he got past to the byline line numerous times 🙄
I thought
Switzerland were brilliant, they played much better than England, penalties are brutal
Sebbene abbia perso, la squadra ha giocato molto bene… brava Svizzera! 👏👏
He's got that team ticking like a Swiss watch, England had to dig very deep to steal it at the death.
Good game Swisse. <3
For the most part, England in this tournament have been extremely bornung.
BRAS LESTROIS DIRECT
you did well you certainly didn't disappoint Switzerland , don't let a missed penalty get you down, especially as the English cheated, the mistake was to let a late lead slip like against Germany, there's room for improvement here for the team
pens are not luck. Englands pen takers are way better. They'd win 9/10 pen shootouts against the swiss. Pickford done his research on where they shoot also
Proud to have lost against a very poor performing England team? More like `bottled` a one off chance to reach the semis. Switzerland never should have let it slip. England on the other hand just getting big time lucky once again. ( Funny: when they bring on the subs.) And that luck will run out – and I hope it does as some players are very unsympathetic – if they don`t start to play the in-form players. Probably they will lose semis or final after playing their best game of the tournament, which would put things into perspective.
No luck in penalties its a skill thats practised by the best teams . Switzerland had fewer shots and possesion than England .
We England have been so poor this tournament I was convinced we’d get beaten by the Swiss we are blagging it imo and have been lucky I’m starting to think that sometimes you are destined for glory.
Small price to pay to live in an objectively better country 🙂
ENGLAND WON BRILLIANTLY SWISS PLAYERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN SENT OFF CHEATERS
Coach of the tournament perhaps
Yes penalties are total luck look at Italy in the last final v England.
Schade 😢 sehr bitter Glücklicher Sieg von England ⚽️
"Saka, we controlled him" 😂
Penalty shootouts are definitely not down to luck!!! Look at Argentina 😮
This guy has great hair
The fact he thinks penalties are down to luck is why Switzerland are going home.
Murat bey good luck,,👏👏👏⚽️⚽️⚽️🌎🫡
Switzerland were excellent this tournament. Brilliant watch from a neutral, and I even found myself supporting them during the Italy and England matches. They’re excellent, and I wish them the best of luck in the future ❤️ 🇨🇭
Swiss should of had a red card too
Swiss 🧀
