END OF EXTRA-TIME: FRANCE 3-3 SWITZERLAND
Minute
Description
117'
Xhaka's brought down by a remonstrating Pogba, handing Switzerland a free-kick near the halfway line. Xhaka decides not to send it straight into France's penalty area and Akanji shoots into the wall from over 35 yards out. In the end, it's a bit of a waste.
116'
Pavard's cross is dealt with by Elvedi and Rabiot's loose touch hands Switzerland possession. A tired Fassnacht can't keep a crossfield pass in play.
115'
Varane prevents Vargas from taking the ball in his stride and creating a shooting opportunity for Switzerland. The Swiss' ambitions now look largely limited to hanging on for penalties.
114'
Pogba plays a stunning pass on the volley to pick out Thuram scampering down the left. Thuram cuts it back for Giroud who slams his shot into a Swiss defender.
113'
Thuram gets involved in the game straight away by winning France a corner. France take it short, and Mbappe worries Switzerland enough for them to punt the ball out for a throw-in.
111'
M. Thuram enters the game and replaces K. Coman.
France substitution. Thuram takes Coman's place on France's left wing.
108'
M. Akanji gets yellow.
Akanji earns himself a booking for that challenge on Pogba. The defender knew what he was doing.
107'
Akanji steams late into Pogba as the France midfielder carries his team upfield. This will be a card of some kind.
105'
Sissoko's cross from the right is cut out by Schar. There'll be one additional minute in this first period of extra-time.
HALF-TIME IN EXTRA-TIME: FRANCE 3-3 SWITZERLAND
We're underway for the final 15 minutes of this match. If neither team scores, we're heading to the dreaded penalty shootout.
103'
Switzerland earn a corner down their left off Pavard. Mehmedi can't keep his header down. There's a brief VAR check for a penalty but the referee waves play on.
101'
France are still the more menacing side but Switzerland still look up for the fight. Sissoko fires high and wide from outside the box as France get forward on a quick counter-attack.
99'
Coman beats his man in the box and goes for goal from a difficult angle but can't find the target.
97'
F. Schär enters the game and replaces H. Seferović.
Switzerland's two-goal hero Seferovic heads off as they look to tighten up again. The Newcastle centre-back Schar comes on.
94'
O. Giroud enters the game and replaces K. Benzema.
Benzema leaves the pitch for what might be the last time in this tournament. That would be a shame. Giroud takes his place up front for France.
93'
Mehmedi fires at goal from Vargas' cross from the right of the box but Lloris is in the right place to stop it.
92'
Pavard starts the extra period by picking up a yellow card for a sloppy challenge on Mehmedi.
91'
B. Pavard gets yellow.
We're back underway for extra-time. This game has been exhausting enough to watch as a spectactor, so goodness knows how the players will summon the energy for another half hour of this.
90' +5
END OF 90 MINUTES: FRANCE 3-3 SWITZERLAND
90' +1
There'll be four more minutes added onto the usual 90 before we get to enjoy 30 more of this game.
90'
M. Gavranović has scored a goal for Switzerland! Assist by G. Xhaka.
GOAL! FRANCE 3-3 SWITZERLAND! Switzerland have forced this game to extra-time! Gavranovic reaches Xhaka's splitting pass through the middle and smashes the ball past Lloris into the bottom left corner!
That pass from Xhaka cut France right open and Gavranovic did it justice by finishing it. What an amazing game this has been.
88'
K. Coman gets yellow.
M. Sissoko enters the game and replaces A. Griezmann.
Coman commits a bad challenge on Mbabu and gets a deserved yellow card.
France make a defensive substitution as Griezmann heads off. Sissoko comes on to shore up the French midfield.
87'
A. Mehmedi enters the game and replaces R. Rodríguez.
Rodriguez will be rueing his disappointing penalty. The Wolfsburg forward Mehmedi replaces him as Switzerland go for broke.
85'
Rabiot fires over from outside the box. Up the other end, Switzerland have the ball in the net through Gavranovic who pokes in Rodriguez's blocked shot. Sadly for Switzerland the striker is offside.
81'
H. Seferović has scored a goal for Switzerland! Assist by K. Mbabu.
GOAL! FRANCE 3-2 SWITZERLAND! Hang on! Is there still life in Switzerland yet? Seferovic joins Benzema on two goals with a powerful close-range header from Mbabu's whipped cross.
France haven't looked convincing in the air and Mbabu has exploited that weakness for Seferovic to score again. There's a big 10 minutes coming up for Switzerland.
80'
Embolo also heads off. The Augsburg winger Vargas takes his place for Switzerland.
79'
C. Fassnacht enters the game and replaces S. Zuber.
R. Vargas enters the game and replaces B. Embolo.
Switzerland make some more changes. Fassnacht comes on for Zuber, who's probably been their best player.
77'
Coman, whose introduction has been only slightly less influential than Lloris' penalty save, gets another save out of Sommer in the top centre of the goal.
76'
G. Xhaka gets yellow.
Xhaka's booked for bringing down Coman in Switzerland's half. The Swiss captain will be suspended in the quarter-finals if Switzerland make it through from here. They surely won't.
75'
P. Pogba has scored a goal for France!
GOAL! FRANCE 3-1 SWITZERLAND! What a strike by Pogba! Pogba finds himself in space outside the box and curls an unstoppable effort right into the top right corner. That's a goal to grace any game.
74'
France are playing with a frightening pace now and Switzerland seem to have no answer to it. Coman's shot from range inspires a routine save from Sommer before Benzema has his own ambitious attempt blocked.
73'
K. Mbabu enters the game and replaces S. Widmer.
M. Gavranović enters the game and replaces X. Shaqiri.
Widmer also makes way. Mbabu is the man to replace him in defence.
Switzerland make some substitutions to try to salvage the game. Shaqiri makes way first. The Dinamo Zagreb forward Gavranovic comes on.
70'
France get two corners in succession. Switzerland survive them both as Pogba's snap shot from range is blocked, but you sense one more France goal would finally finish them off.
68'
Pogba threads a fantastic pass through for Mbappe but Sommer does just enough to put the Paris Saint-Germain star off as he bears down on goal.
66'
Rabiot brings down Shaqiri down Switzerland's right. Shaqiri floats the free-kick to the far post where Seferovic somehow misses the target! The Switzerland striker's committed a foul in the buildup anyway.
62'
R. Rodríguez gets yellow.
Rodriguez picks up a booking for a poor challenge on Griezmann, adding insult to the injury of his saved penalty.
61'
Repeat: Switzerland must be kicking themselves, especially Rodriguez. France have shown exactly why they're champions of the world. Switzerland have an Alpine mountain to climb now.
59'
K. Benzema has scored a goal for France!
GOAL! FRANCE 2-1 SWITZERLAND! Benzema grabs his second of the game as Sommer saves Griezmann's shot from a tight angle. The ball loops up to the far post where Benzema is there to nod it in!
58'
Mbappe's pass was good but Benzema showed his class there to salvage what looked a lost opportunity. Switzerland must be kicking themselves.
57'
K. Benzema has scored a goal for France! Assist by K. Mbappé.
GOAL! FRANCE 1-1 SWITZERLAND! How quickly things can change! Benzema controls Mbappe's pass with a great touch even though the ball's slightly behind him. The Real Madrid man takes another touch to reach the centre of the box and slots home!
55'
Penalty saved by H. Lloris!
Switzerland pile into the box to try to reach the rebound but Lloris is soon up to snaffle it. France's captain has come to their rescue with a great save, although Rodriguez should have done better.
RODRIGUEZ MISSES THE PENALTY! Rodriguez goes for the bottom left corner without much conviction and Lloris gets across to tip it aside!
47'
France look livelier already as Griezmann fires not far wide from outside the box. Switzerland are on notice.
46'
K. Coman enters the game and replaces C. Lenglet.
Deschamps makes a much-needed change to France at half-time, ditching the back three. Lenglet's given the hook. Coman comes on.
France get the second half going. Let's see how that half-time switcheroo affects the world champions' performance. As things stand they're crashing out of Euro 2020.
45' +3
HALF-TIME: FRANCE 0-1 SWITZERLAND
45' +2
Benzema's half-hearted attempt from the left of the box is blocked. Seconds later, Embolo stays down after a clash of heads with Rabiot. Thankfully the striker soon gets to his feet. That'll be that for now.
45' +1
Embolo barrels into the box and causes a spot of chaos before France hurriedly clear.
45'
There'll be two minutes added onto the end of this first half. Switzerland have been largely comfortable.
44'
Embolo motors through the middle and Kimpembe brings him down. The Borussia Monchengladbach may be 24 years old now but he's still brimming with potential.
43'
Griezmann's lovely flick sends Mbappe scampering inside from the right. Freuler's canny nudge sends Mbappe off-balance and his shot swerving high and wide.
41'
Switzerland bide their time before Xhaka bypasses Kante to find Embolo in the box. Embolo's heavy touch allows Varane to come across and punt the ball out for a corner. From it Akanji heads well over.
40'
Embolo finds his strike partner Seferovic down the left. Seferovic has no support though so Switzerland keep the ball instead. The Swiss are looking very composed.
38'
There's an impromptu water break as the officials deal with a pitch invader. France soon resume their latest spell on the ball.
34'
Pogba brings down Embolo in the centre of the pitch as Switzerland look to get forward on the counter-attack. The referee elects not to book Pogba this time.
32'
N. Elvedi gets yellow.
Elvedi joins Varane in the book for a poor foul. France are not finding life easy at the moment.
31'
Embolo gets on his head on the end of Shaqiri's free-kick but not enough of it to prevent his header from bouncing wide to the right.
30'
R. Varane gets yellow.
Varane receives the game's first yellow card for that mistimed challenge on Zuber.
29'
Zuber takes on Varane down Switzerland's left but can't shake the Real Madrid man off. The Swiss circulate the ball for a while and Zuber comes at Varane again, this time tempting Varane into cutting him down.
27'
Mbappe's high ball in from the left is given short shrift by the Swiss defence. Rabiot goes for goal from distance and Switzerland's goalkeeper Sommer is delighted to watch the shot fizz just wide of his left-hand post.
26'
Mbappe smashes the free-kick into Switzerland's wall and skims a shot well wide on the half-volley on the follow-up.
25'
Rabiot knocks the ball up into Freuler's midriff but the referee gives France a free-kick for handball. Switzerland won't be happy if France manage to score from this.
23'
Rabiot tries to find Benzema but doesn't get the power on the pass right and Switzerland intercept. The Swiss are frustrating the French so far.
21'
The offside flag goes up against Mbappe as he mistimes his run onto Pogba's throughball. Mbappe's reaction is a slightly petulant one.
17'
France look to make amends straight away as Griezmann's brought down by Freuler in Switzerland's half. Griezmann sends the free-kick into the penalty area but Switzerland manage to deal with it
16'
Zuber wasted no time in getting the ball to Seferovic there and the Benfica striker attacked it with aplomb. France have work to do!
15'
H. Seferović has scored a goal for Switzerland! Assist by S. Zuber.
Seferovic turns and shoots from outside the box only to find a France defender in his path. It doesn't matter though because...
GOAL! FRANCE 0-1 SWITZERLAND! The ball rebounds to Zuber who floats a cross in from the left of the box. Seferovic drifts into the box and rises to nod it easily past Lloris!
13'
France's latest attack breaks down as a pass intended for Mbappe down their left goes awry. Mbappe knows it's a lost cause and doesn't even try to reach it.
11'
Switzerland haven't looked overawed by the task in front of them so far but they've got to avoid making big errors. Embolo hands France the ball in midfield but his defenders bail him out as Mbappe comes running, blocking his pass to Benzema.
9'
Switzerland retain possession from the corner and work the ball right to Freuler who runs just to the edge of the box. Freuler's cross drops over the head of Pavard at the far post as well as everyone else.
8'
Embolo's intercepted run to the byline earns Switzerland a second corner that France also clear. It's been a fairly even start between these two sides.
7'
Mbappe twists this way and that with the ball to the left of the box, eventually fizzing a cross in. France get a corner out of it but no joy from said corner.
5'
Benzema darts into space down the left-hand channel and cuts back from the byline, only for a Switzerland defender to cut it out. Switzerland can't clear it totally though and block Pogba's opportunistic strike from the centre of the box.
3'
Switzerland force a corner of their own off Pavard as Shaqiri's cross is blocked. Rodriguez's corner doesn't cause France much trouble.
2'
France start the game brightly, immediately forcing a corner down their left. Varane nods over from Griezmann's corner when he should at least be hitting the target.
1'
Switzerland's talisman Shaqiri gets this game underway! France are wearing their usual blue home colours. Switzerland will play in all-white.
Hello! Welcome to our live text commentary of this UEFA Euro 2020 round of 16 clash between France and Switzerland at National Arena, Bucharest.
After topping the group of death Group F, world champions France face neighbours Switzerland in this first knockout round. Didier Deschamps' men will be confident of making it through to the next round of Euro 2020, having not lost a competitive match for over two years now. If Germany and Portugal couldn't defeat the French, Switzerland really shouldn't either.
Switzerland secured third place in Group A last time out by dispatching an underwhelming Turkey 3-1. Vladimir Petkovic's team have reached the knockout stage in four consecutive tournaments now but were knocked out straight away in the last three. They'll need to defeat France here if they want to shake their tag of being a good side but not a great one.
FRANCE (3-4-1-2): Hugo Lloris (c); Raphael Varane, Clement Lenglet, Presnel Kimpembe; Benjamin Pavard, Paul Pogba, N'Golo Kante, Adrien Rabiot; Antoine Griezmann; Karim Benzema, Kylian Mbappe.
SUBS: Wissam Ben Yedder, Steve Mandanda, Kingsley Coman, Leo Dubois, Lucas Hernandez, Corentin Tolisso, Mike Maignan, Kurt Zouma, Olivier Giroud, Thomas Lemar, Marcus Thuram, Moussa Sissoko.
SWITZERLAND (3-4-1-2): Yann Sommer; Nico Elvedi, Manuel Akanji, Ricardo Rodriguez; Silvan Widmer, Remo Freuler, Granit Xhaka (c), Steven Zuber; Xherdan Shaqiri; Haris Seferovic, Breel Embolo.
SUBS: Yvon Mvogo, Denis Zakaria, Edimilson Fernandes, Kevin Mbabu, Admir Mehmedi, Christian Fassnacht, Mario Gavranovic, Djibril Sow, Fabian Schar, Gregor Kobel, Ruben Vargas, Loris Benito.
The two teams are out on the pitch in Bucharest. Switzerland sing their national anthem and France rustle up a stirring rendition of La Marseillaise.
This round of 16 tie is going to extra-time after a breathless second half! Switzerland had the chance to go 2-0 up before Lloris saved Rodriguez's penalty and France roared back. Once France went 3-1 up, Switzerland's tournament looked over but two goals in the last 10 minutes have given them a chance.
We're none the wiser as to which of France or Switzerland is going to make it into the last eight. Since this game went to extra-time both teams have played with a little more caution. It's something of a relief after the madcap last half hour of normal time.
Switzerland will be very proud of forcing France to penalties after looking down and out after 80 minutes. France will have to show their strength now to see the underdogs off. The two captain Xhaka and Lloris embrace at the halfway line. Switzerland will take the first penalty as Xhaka wins the toss.
1-0 SWITZERLAND! Gavranovic steps up and smashes his penalty into the top left corner. Lloris wasn't getting near that one.
1-1 FRANCE! Pogba takes a similarly professional penalty, finding the top corner. Again, Sommer has no chance.
2-1 SWITZERLAND! Schar takes a composed penalty, sending Lloris the wrong way before firing into the right of the net.
3-2 SWITZERLAND! Akanji finds the bottom left corner with his penalty. No drama there.
2-2 FRANCE! Giroud is calm as you like as he dispatches his penalty into the bottom right corner.
3-3 FRANCE! Sommer gets close to saving Thuram's penalty but it just squeaks past him into the bottom left corner.
4-3 SWITZERLAND! Lloris gets a big hand on Vargas' strike but it has the power to just squeak past the French goalkeeper.
4-4 FRANCE! Kimpembe lashes his penalty into the top right corner. We're at sudden death already.
5-4 SWITZERLAND! Mehmedi sends Lloris the wrong way and finds the bottom right corner. Mbappe has to score for France now.
FULL-TIME: FRANCE 3-3 SWITZERLAND (SWITZERLAND WIN 5-4 ON PENALTIES)
It's Switzerland, then, who progress to their first ever European Championship quarter-final to face Spain. France, meanwhile, have got some fallout coming. That's all for now. Goodbye!
SOMMER SAVES MBAPPE'S PENALTY! 5-4 SWITZERLAND! Mbappe sends his penalty too close to the middle and Sommer gets his left hand up to reach it! Switzerland have won!
