Switzerland’s possible route to the World Cup final

Placing top in their group, Switzerland faced Algeria in the round of 32. It was a straightforward enough match up, with the Swiss winning 2-0.

In the round of 16, Switzerland faced Colombia. It wasn’t the most thrilling encouter, but the Europeans ran out winners via a penalty shootout.

Reaching the last eight, Switzerland’s next game is against the reigning World Cup champions, Argentina. Led by a fit and firing Lionel Messi, the Albiceleste are a tough proposition for any team that’s in their way. A Switzerland victory may be unlikely, but we’ve already seen some underdog wins this tournament – and Cape Verde & Egypt proved you can go to toe-to-toe with Argentina – so who knows what they could do in a one-off game? 

If they manage to progress into the semi-finals, England are likely to be awaiting them. Despite the Three Lions looking like strong opposition, Switzerland can prove to be tricky on their day.

Finally, a matchup against the 2018 World Cup winners, France, would likely await the winner from Switzerland’s side of the draw. Entering as one of the tournament’s heavy favourites, Les Bleus will be driven to reclaim their World Cup crown after losing the 2022 final. If Switzerland manage to do the impossible, could they create one of the biggest upsets in the competition’s history?
