    I think you'll find Switzerland are neutral, happy to be alongside the Germans and going for gold <laugh>

    Can I be the first to say the referee is doing a good job here ...

    ... only whistles when it's unavoidable so far.

    I really enjoyed that.

    The Swiss have come out to win the game, played in the opposition half and can now pick off Hungary ...

    ... sadly I expect England to play endless passes along the back line and midfield.

    I always feel Southgate is delighted with a draw,

    Bit by bit the press, from the Swiss, is moving backwards ...

    ... if it stays like this the last twenty minutes with see Hungary going for the win imo.

    That's been coming. Such a good cross and great forward play to get behind his man

    Good win for Switzerland. Nice to see a few goals in the 2 games so far, hopefully that sets the tone for the rest of the tournament

    Enjoyed that, felt like a proper international tournament game. The Swiss were very good in the first half and fully deserved the win but in the second half Hungary showed signs that they are decent.

    Best game of the weekend up next.

    Croatia looked good up top at the World Cup. Hopefully more of the same here...

    Another great game coming up.

    It's often said players are exhausted after their club competitions ...

    ... didn't see any signs in the last game, don't expect any in this.
