Sport | Football England will face Switzerland in the quarter-finals at Euro 2024 . The Three Lions just about squeezed through on Sunday night thanks to a dramatic late last-16 comeback against Slovakia in Gelsenkirchen that saw a stunning last-gasp bicycle-kick equaliser from Jude Bellingham followed by an early extra-time header from captain Harry Kane that sealed a remarkable 2-1 win. Unconvincing Group C winners England had been mere seconds away from a humiliating early exit and quite possibly the end of Gareth Southgate’s eight-year reign after yet another abject display until the most thrilling of unexpected turnarounds at the Arena AufSchalke kept their campaign alive.

But Southgate’s side will have to up their levels considerably against the settled Swiss, who are soaring with confidence right now after coming within a whisker of pipping hosts Germany to top spot in Group A before goals from Remo Freuler and Ruben Vargas secured a fully deserved dominant 2-0 victory over woeful defending champions Italy in Berlin in the opening last-16 tie. England vs Switzerland is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off on Saturday July 6, 2024. The match will take place at Dusseldorf Arena.
