That wasn't easy to stop. Ball dipping and swerving in the air. Ecuador fans thought they have grabbed a dramatic late winner.

74'
Some neat possession play by the Swiss. Looking to work the ball from left to right. One goal would surely win this match.

72'
GOAL DISALLOWED FOR THE SWISS! Drmic has the ball in the net. And he is onside, but a flag has gone up. Poor, poor call as it came off a blue shirt.
