Follow us for live updates from the Argentina–Switzerland quarterfinal! Switzerland has found the back of the net. Dan Ndoye leveled the score for the European side in the 67th minute of their World Cup quarterfinal against Lionel Messi and Argentina on Saturday, July 11 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. After receiving a pass, Ndoye unleashed a shot into the right side of the net, slipping past goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez as the ball tucked just inside the post.
The equalizer brings the game to 1-1. Entering the match as the underdogs against the 2022 World Cup champions, Switzerland arrived without their leading scorer Johan Manzambi, who was sidelined by an injury sustained in training. Despite the setback, Switzerland advanced from Group B, which also featured the host nation Canada. In the knockout rounds, they defeated Algeria 2-0 and then outlasted Colombia in a penalty shootout after a draw in regulation.
Advancing to the quarterfinals marks one of Switzerland’s best World Cup performances, matching their runs in 1934, 1938, and 1954 when they also reached this stage. This game adds another chapter to their storied history on the world stage.
