Gareth Bale could not help his Wales , the one he has at the top of his list, to win in his debut at this European Championship . In fact, the footballer who will return to Real Madrid on June 30 practically did not appear. With a Bale that did not appear anywhere, the baton of his country was led by Daniel James . The match ended 1-1 thanks to goals from Embolo , for Switzerland, and Moore , who put the tables.
Wales got the game off to a good start under the guidance of Manchester United footballer Daniel James. The left wing was his strong suit, but when the rest of the team does not accompany there is little to do. From a center from the end came the first big chance of the game, where Sommer showed off with a save before a shot from Moore.
From that moment on, Switzerland was waking up from a siesta. Who knows if the time or the trip to Baku , but the team that wore white had a hard time getting into the match. And when he did, he got the Welsh in trouble. The first was Schär , who spurred in a corner was about to make the first for his team.
The one who most insisted looking for the goal for Switzerland was an old acquaintance of the Spanish fans: Haris Seferovic . The ex of the Real Sociedad was on the verge of making a goal to the turn and later he sent another shot to the clouds. The goal with which to get ahead did not arrive and therefore both teams went to the interval with 0-0.
In the second half, Switzerland continued to dominate. Now the most active one happened to be Embolo , who saw how a very clear occasion was sent to a corner by Ward . That corner kick, thrown by Shaqiri, found the head of Embolo , this time sending the ball to the back of the net. In fact, the Borussia Mönchengladbach striker touched the second but was not lucky.
Seeing himself below in the electronic Wales he dared a little more. It was Ben Davies who tried to equalize the contest with a powerful kick from the crescent of the area, but there was Akanji to deflect his shot. The next there was no error. A perfect centric from Aaron Ramsey found Moore’s wounded and bandaged head to comb it out and beat a Sommer who had to pull the leather from the bottom of his goal.
Everything could change in the last minutes when Gavranovic managed to make the second for Switzerland and celebrate it like a possessed believing that they were closer to the three points. But none of that, the VAR reviewed the play and determined that the striker who had jumped onto the pitch two minutes earlier was in an illegal position. With the goal annulled, both teams had to split the points for 1-1.
