Switzerland-Spain: the official compositions - 24hfootnews

[ad_1]

Shock between France and Spain in Saint Petersburg to start the quarter-finals of Euro 2020! And no ! It was Switzerland, falling for the France team at the end of a game with twists and turns (3-3, 5-4 tab), who won the right to face La Roja for a place in the semi-final. The Nati advance without complex, after a start to the course marked by a draw against the Welsh, a heavy defeat against Italy and a success against Turkey. But opposite stands a team which very timidly started the competition before blowing everything up: two draws then ten goals in the last two matches (5-0 Slovakia, 5-3 Croatia), the Spaniards are favorites.

To try to grab the last four, Vladimir Petković, deprived of Granit Xhaka, suspended, opts for a classic 3-4-1-2. Appeared only 25 minutes in the first match against Wales, Denis Zakaria is the only novelty of the eleven, integrated into the midfield. On the side of Luis Enrique, who has observed the awakening of his scorers in the last two matches, we trust the 4-3-3 winner of Croatia. With one nuance, José Gaya returns the left side of the defense to Jordi Alba. In central defense, Eric Garcia seemed to have taken the best of Pau Torres, but it is the Villarreal player who accompanies Aymeric Laporte. The Parisian Pablo Sarabia is the Ligue 1 touch of this quarter-final.

Team compositions:

Swiss : Sommer – Elvedi, Akanji, Rodríguez – Widmer, Freuler, Zakaria, Zuber – Shaqiri – Embolo, Seferović
