The World Cup starts here. Well it never feels right until Brazil play. The Swiss do have a decent World Cup record and are usually no pushovers. The studio panel once again absolutely baffled at how players who play in England aren’t in the team. And Tyldesley has his customary dig at VAR. Seriously, give it a rest.
Back at the beautiful game, Brazil as expected dominated and their ‘keeper hardly touched the ball, but it took a cracking Coutinho curler to put them in front and the Swiss came alive a bit before the break. Brazil ahead but it’s not exactly 1970.
Switzerland though equalised in the simplest fashion, an unchallenged header from a corner amid claims of a push. Brazil almost got a late winner with a similar attempt and a shot just past but it was far from a vintage performance. Good to see the restrained Swiss celebrations at the final whistle, it’s just a draw after all not a trophy.
