It must be said that the match was even, after 5 minutes Aleksandar Mitrovic managed to score a goal that put Serbia ahead in the score, then had better opportunities to increase through Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Thus the first half ends, at the beginning of the second part the Swiss coach Heimir Hallgrímsson makes a strategic change with the entry of Mario Gavranović to the detriment of Haris Seferović achieving more balance and mobility to the team.

In this way, 7 minutes into the second half of the match, Switzerland achieved a draw, the result of a great and violent left-footed shot from more than 25 meters from Granit Xhaka after a rebound produced by Shaqiri.

Serbia was trying to baste opportunities without success, the opposite happened with players from Switzerland who were clearer than those led by Petkovic and leaving in oblivion the equality of the game taking advantage of the freshness of the relief Gavranovic.

It is so that ending the game in the 90th minute, Switzerland in a against, Shaqiri ran 50 meters and defined with spectacular class for the triumph of the national team.

With this victory, his first one in Russia 2018, Switzerland reaches 4 points, has the best option to qualify for the second round, so he must rethink his pass against the already eliminated Costa Rica, which has made a great competition despite its defeats against Serbia and Brazil, while in the other match will be sparks Brazil and Serbia.
