– Scotland Goal Scorer: McTominay 13′
– Switzerland Goal Scorer: Shaqiri 26′

The match between Scotland and Switzerland was thrilling right from the start. Both teams showed determination to secure the final 3 points.

Fierce contests for the ball happened from the early minutes, and the audience didn’t have to wait long to see the deadlock broken.

In the 13th minute, from a smooth combination on the left wing, the ball was played down to the byline for McGregor. The player wearing number 8 made a favorable back pass to the second line for McTominay to launch a sharp shot. The ball flew like an arrow towards the goal, causing Schar to score an own goal.

Despite their efforts, the teams were left to share the points in a dramatic draw.

Trailing, Switzerland pushed their lineup forward, and it only took them 13 minutes to find the equalizer. The scorer was Shaqiri with a long-range wonder strike from outside the 16.5-meter area.

In the remaining minutes, both teams had their own chances, but lack of luck meant the first half ended without any additional goals.

Entering the second half, the match remained exciting. In the 58th minute, Dan Ndoye was put in a one-on-one situation, but his shot disappointingly went wide of the goal. In the 83rd minute, Switzerland found the net with a classy chip from Embolo, but the goal was once again disallowed due to offside.

On a day when both teams lacked luck, with the ball hitting the net four times but only two goals counting, a draw was a result that could satisfy both sides. With 1 point each, the chance for both teams to advance past the group stage remains intact.
