A good fight from the Germans for not accepting defeat no matter how tough Switzerland defending tactic was. I never expected Germany to struggle for a draw but since it is football, surprise is certain. With this draw Germany will prepare themselves better for their next match in the round of 16 in order for them to advance to the next stage.
Switzerland did great yesterday even though they played a defensive game, the most important thing is that they got their host worried a d gave them a lot of difficulties before Germany managed to equalize the goal. Switzerland will also be in the round of 16, and I hope to can win that match.
There is no denying that Switzerland's players performed very well in this match. We considered Germany as the favorite in this match. And I thought Germany would win. The Switzerland coach is well aware that his squad is quite weak compared to Germany. So Switzerland was very strategic in this match.
In the first half of the match, Switzerland played a bit of an attacking strategy. Several strong attacks were made by the Swiss players. But after scoring the goal, the only task of the Swiss players was to resist the attacks of the German players. Switzerland's players played badly defensively. This is how you should perform if you want to score points against a strong opponent like Germany. I would say Switzerland succeeded in achieving their goal.
