Switzerland v Colombia LIVE: Underdogs meet in World Cup last 16 for right to face Messi’s Argentina after thrilling comeback | OneFootball

Switzerland and Colombia will clash in the World Cup round of 16 today, with a quarter-final place on the line – potentially against Argentina.

Granit Xhaka’s Swiss side overcame Algeria 2-0 in the round of 32, following a professional group-stage campaign in which they beat co-hosts Canada and thrashed Bosnia & Herzegovina, after surprisingly drawing with Qatar.

Meanwhile, Colombia escaped a group they shared with Portugal, DR Congo and Uzbekistan, beating the latter two and drawing with Cristiano Ronaldo’s side. They then edged past Ghana in the last 32 to set up today’s clash.

And the winner of Argentina v Egypt awaits in the quarter-finals, for whoever gets through here.
