00:18far post to put Switzerland ahead with only 15 minutes left.

00:27on heavily throughout the tournament to equalise with a fierce low shot five minutes later.

00:36after goalkeeper Jordan Pickford saved Manuel Akanji's first spot-kick.
00:41Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham, Saka and Ivan Toni were all successful before substitute
00:45Trent Alexander-Arnold hammered home the decisive penalty in front of England's delirious supporters.
