Penalty shoot-out details (Switzerland went second) 1 – Manuel Akanji [saved] 2 – Fabian Schär [scored] 3 – Xherdan Shaqiri [scored] 4 – Zeki Amdouni [scored] . Switzerland had now failed to progress to the last four in the five major tournaments when they had reached the quarter-finals; the most by a European nation without reaching a semi-final. . The Rossocrociati had now been involved in six penalty shoot-outs and won only one. . They had now lost two of their 19 games since the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
