Ticker: Switzerland dominate Northern Ireland – Xhemaili goal the difference at the break

The match will be played in Lausanne – at the Stade de la Tuilière. Why did Switzerland choose a stadium with artificial turf? “That wasn’t my decision. But they spoke to me and said it was the best stadium we could play in this month. Now we’ve prepared for it, there are no excuses,” said Rafel Navarro the day before the game. Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic admitted: “The seats at the European Championship, that was a dream. But it’s not easy to find good pitches at this time of year, especially for training.”
