That's true. But I think Switzerland have a lot of firepower. Also, Xhaka is in formidable form and will have a big say in that match.

England will need to score three in that game to avoid it going to pens.

They're a formidable opponent.

In my opinion them and Spain have been the best teams in this tournament so far.
As Harry Kane says, "it's a results business."

I'd take England to find a way - possibly grimly, possibly easily - past a side with no real record of achievement. I would love to be wrong, but expectation management is important, we were 90 seconds from an impromptu night of wild celebration, and we have another fortnight of this before the final. Where I fully expect Captain Kane, Sir Harry, to lead his charges out against...hopefully someone good who won't let them off the hook like these Ruriatarian farmers did today.

First point contradicts the second - doesn't matter what their record or tradition is as long as they can win here and now. England's real record is to fail now anyway, if we're talking about that, so this is a pointless discussion.
