The Valencian player Nico González, started in the midfield, little by little with more rhythm of the game. The staging was surely not what Santi Denia wanted. Switzerland surprised La Rojita with Ndoye’s mobility between the lines, starting from the left, and high pressure that stalled a very cold Spain at the start.
After warning Ndoye after five minutes, three minutes later he did not forgive and resolved a good through Sohm pass with quality. Those of Patrick Ramen could do more damage and bordered the second and it is that Spain did not react until minute 20, with a high kick from Sergio Gómez.
The little red reacts and great goal to tie
We had to wait half an hour, but Baena and Rodri began to appear, and the panorama changed. At 32′, a high header from captain Abel Ruiz narrowly missed Rodri’s cross. Just a minute later, a header, this time from Baena and Keller, the Swiss goalkeeper, who put his arm strong.
And on the edge of the break, the equalizing goal. Great goal, rather. Rodri picked up the ball in the front, prepared it for him and his left foot slipped through the top corner. Of course, the little red continued undecided behind and Stojilkovic almost took advantage, but Agirrezabala dropped to his knees to catch.
No changes at the start of the second half.
