England reach semifinals after perfect penalty shootout series against Switzerland

England reached the semifinals of Euro 2024 after a tense game that saw the Three Lions qualify on penalties after drawing 1-1 with Switzerland, the third consecutive draw in three quarter-finals, APA reports citing Euronews. Trent Alexander-Arnold scored the decisive 5-3 shootout for England, while Switzerland paid Manuel Akanji's miss. The game was extremely balanced and could have ended either way. Switzerland proved once again to be a tough and well-organised opponent. England's man of the game was without a doubt Bukayo Saka. He kept the team alive by scoring the 1-1 but also was the only English player to remain dangerous and at the centre of the game throughout the whole 120 minutes. Source: Azeri-Press news agency
