BUCHAREST, June 28 (Xinhua) -- Switzerland knocked world champions France out of Euro 2020 in penalty shoot-out, reaching the quarterfinals following a 3-3 draw on Monday.
Switzerland's goalkeeper Yann Sommer denied French striker Kylian Mbappe's penalty shot to earn his side the victory. Switzerland will next play against Spain, which beat Croatia 5-3 after extra time.
Mario Gavranovic's 90th-minute strike allowed Switzerland to take France to extra time at Euro 2020 as the last-16 tie in Bucharest ended 3-3 after 90 minutes.
Haris Seferovic gave the Swiss a half-time lead in the Romanian capital but Hugo Lloris saved a Ricardo Rodriguez penalty early in the second half before a Karim Benzema double turned the game on its head.
A stunning Paul Pogba strike then had the world champions 3-1 ahead but Seferovic scored again to reduce the deficit before substitute Gavranovic equalized. Enditem
