UEFA EURO 2016 GROUP STAGE A – ALBANIA vs SWITZERLAND RECAP

Switzerland was able to score early in the game and looked like they coasted along the game while Albania was aggressive throughout the match but just couldn’t deliver.

As Switzerland notes —

“First we played with the tempo we wanted then we sat back a bit. We allowed the opposition to be a bit more aggressive. “The Albanians were a bit shocked after the goal and we were able to play with a bit more freedom, but they reacted well to the sending off. “I watched the Romania game yesterday. I saw France really struggling to beat them. They are very physical and well set up, but I always play to win.”
