England reached the semi-finals of Euro 2024 on Saturday after beating Switzerland 5-3 on penalties following a 1-1 draw in the last eight. Trent Alexander-Arnold scored the decisive spot-kick to send England into a last-four clash with either the Netherlands or Turkey in Dortmund on Wednesday. Bukayo Saka's stunning equaliser with 10 minutes remaining, which the Arsenal forward lashed in off the inside of the post, took the match to extra time.

England win and they do it after scoring all 5 penalties. All of the players kept their nerve and it was just a miss from Manuel Akanji that proved to be the difference. Huge win for England and they will now face the winner of the match between Netherlands and Turkey.

A last-minute chance for Switzerland as Shaqiri unleashed another powerful shot but Pickford was not bothered and this game will now be decided on penalties. 

This game is slowly headed towards the penalties. A chance for Shaqiri to find a way but once again, the finishing was just not there. He slammed the post directly from the corner and England were truly tensed.

England are relentless in their attacks and waves after waves of crosses into the box are keeping Switzerland busy. However, one last throw of the dice as Shaqiri is introduced into the game in place of Embolo.

That is the end of the first half of extra time. We are 15 minutes away from penalties and both sides have not shown much promise when it comes to scoring the winning goal.

Since the start of the extra time, it has been England who have been attacking with all they have. Switzerland have defended well but Jude Bellingham received the ball at an extremely dangerous position. A good shot on target but Yan Sommer had not problems in making the save.

A long range shot from Declan Rice and that was a good opportunity for England. The ball swerved hard in the air and missed the target by a small margin. This is getting interesting but the finishing remains a sore point for both teams.

The extra time begins and this is where England found their winner against Slovakia. However, Switzerland have been solid in defense and it will take something special for both sides to clinch the win.

90 minutes are over and this game is going to extra time. Once again, England conceded the first goal but came back to equalise. However, Switzerland are looking in good touch and they are capable of springing a big surprise.

This game had just one shots on target and within the last 10 minutes, both teams have found one goal each. This is getting interesting now with both sides looking to get the win within regulation time. 

That lead is short-lived as Bukayo Saka comes up with a truly special goal. A swinging shot from his left-foot kisses the post and goes inside as England are back. 1-1 and it is game on!

Breel Embolo opens the scoring for Switzerland. This is not good for England. They trail once again and it was a big defensive laps. Embolo found himself is great position and it was an easy finish to put the ball at the back of the net.

Zero shots on target for England and just one for Switzerland - this game really did not have many chances for either team. This has been a slow but steady tactic by both teams but considering the dearth of opportunities, this game can also be decided in extra time or even penalties.

The best word to describe the match till now - stalemate. Both teams are trying extremely hard to come up with a viable attack but no clear cut chances as of now. This has been a problem for England who struggled to score and needed very late goals in their last game as well.

The big chance of the second half fell for Switzerland but the cross was just too much for Embolo. He was full stretch to reach the pass right in front of the goal but no luck for him.

Both England and Switzerland have started the second half in a much cautious way than one would have expected. Calculated attacks on both sides but not a great chance for either till now.

The second half begins and this will be a very important 45 minutes for England. Gareth Southgate is already under a lot of pressure for how his team has performed in this tournament. A loss in this game can even lead to him losing his job. Switzerland, on the other hand, will be looking to extend their giant-killing streak.

It is half-time with England and Switzerland tied at 0-0. Multiple chances for both teams to score but no success till now. This match will be decided by which side can come up with the better finishing.

Both England and Switzerland had good chances to take the lead but the finishing has been a problem for both sides. Multiple build-ups down the wingers but without a proper showing from the strikers, this match did not have a clear cut chance for any side.

Turkey face the Netherlands in a Euro 2024 quarter-final which has been overshadowed by a diplomatic row between the Turks and Germany. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will attend the match at Berlin's Olympiastadion amidst a political spat between his country and host nation Germany over a controversial gesture by banned Turkey defender Merih Demiral.

Yellow card for Fabian Schar. A rash challenge on Jude Bellingham resulted in the first booking of the match and Switzerland will have to be careful. England have found their rhythm and it will be difficult to stop them with the threat of red cards.

Looks like England have found a sudden boost in the midfield with Saka forming a proper partnership with Bellingham. However, with Bellingham playing just behind the striker Kane, there is a slight confusion in the ranks when it comes to the focal point of the crosses.

A header from Harry Kane goes wide of the goal and a powerful shot from Mainoo was saved by the defender - It is not that England are not attacking but the end product is not what they are hoping for.

A lot of people expected to England to go on the offensive but Switzerland are not sitting back. They are relying on quick cut backs from their wingers and it took a good showing from Mainoo and Konsa to stop their strikers from reaching the final pass.

There were a lot of speculations regarding where Bakayo Saka may play but he is currently operating as an winger and he has been quite effective. A couple of attacks from his side of the pitch but the final ball has not been good enough to bring Harry Kane into business.

The match is underway and aggressive start by both teams. This game will mostly be decided in the midfield and considering the congestion, it will take something special from one of the teams to break the deadlock.

The two teams are out in the middle and it is time for the national anthems. We are just minutes away from the start of this encounter and considering the performance of these teams, 

The one aspect of the game that has really bothered Gareth Southgate is his midfield and with Kobbie Mainoo, he has introduced a third partner for Declan Rice. However, their success was not much in the last game.

Yann Sommer; Fabian Schar, Manuel Akanji, Ricardo Rodriguez; Michel Aebischer, Remo Freuler, Granit Xhaka (capt), Fabian Rieder; Ruben Vargas, Breel Embolo, Dan Ndoye

Jordan Pickford; Kyle Walker, John Stones, Ezri Konsa; Kieran Trippier; Declan Rice, Kobbie Mainoo, Bukayo Saka; Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden; Harry Kane (captain)

Switzerland are unchanged from the side that beat Italy 2-0 in the last 16. Murat Yakin's side are aiming to reach the semi-finals of a major tournament for the first time in Swiss history.

Bukayo Saka will switch to left wing-back and Kieran Tripper will be restored to his natural role on the right flank. The change in system allows both Phil Foden and Jude Bellingham to play from the central midfield roles they thrived in for Manchester City and Real Madrid respectively last season.

England manager Gareth Southgate made just one change to his side for Saturday's Euro 2024 quarter-final against Switzerland but is expected to switch formation in Duesseldorf. Ezri Konsa replaces the suspended Marc Guehi, but the Aston Villa defender is set to slot into a back three alongside John Stones and Kyle Walker.

Welcome to the LIVE coverage of the Euro 2024 quarterfinal clash between England and Switzerland. Two teams who had a somewhat topsy turvy journey in the competition and a big win will be extremely helpful to their cause.
