Switzerland Beat Colombia on Penalties

Switzerland knocked out Colombia on penalties, 4-3, to advance to the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time since 1954.

The match ended in dramatic fashion as Switzerland prevailed in a penalty shootout after a goalless 120 minutes of play. Swiss players celebrated wildly as Colombian players looked dejected following the elimination.

Switzerland now advances to face Lionel Messi and Argentina in Kansas City in four days. This marks their first quarter-final appearance since 1954 when the tournament had only 16 teams. chickenroadslot.pro
