0:0

No goals and 7 points each in Group B is the sort of line that usually closes discussion before it starts.

2:0

Switzerland made it 2:0 with two precise touches at the most inconvenient minutes for its opponent: Embolo scored on 10, Ndoye on 46, straight after the break. The 20% anomaly score calls the evening exemplary.
