Several European media ranked the "Swiss Rimontada" against France, after the "roosters" were eliminated from the round of 16 yesterday on penalties, after Switzerland was 1-3 behind 10 minutes before the end of the match;
It is the best among all the "remontadas" in the history of the European Nations Cup.
Switzerland had advanced with a goal through striker Seferovic in the 15th minute, but Karim Benzema hit twice in the second half (57 and 59), before Pogba reinforced the result with a beautiful shot in the 75th minute, which made everyone believe that the match was over, but Seferovic returned with another header. To reduce the score in the 81st minute, and in the deadly time, Mario Gavranovic scored the equalizer for Switzerland, and after two extra games without goals, the penalty shootout came, but France's first star Kilian Mbappe missed the last kick, and Switzerland won 5-4.

For his part, Kylian Mbappe said on his official account on “Instagram” that “it is difficult to sleep after wasting the sensitive kick,” and also said: “Shock and sadness and things cannot be changed, we did not achieve our goal, but it is a tax we pay because of this game.”
"I feel sorry for the fans who have supported us, I apologize to them and promise that we will come back stronger, and I would like to congratulate the Swiss team and wish them success in their career."
Mbappe had an unprecedented negative number in the current finals that are held in many European cities, as he shot six times in the meeting with Switzerland, but without any of them in the woods, which has not happened so far in the tournament.
