🧠 Match Summary

vs

Switzerland are through to the Round of 16 after a composed 2-0 victory over Algeria in Vancouver, with Breel Embolo breaking the deadlock in just the 10th minute and Dan Ndoye effectively sealing the tie with a goal right on half-time. Despite Algeria enjoying the majority of possession at 56%, the Fennec Foxes struggled to convert their opportunities, managing just two shots on target to Switzerland's five.

Yael Falcón oversaw a competitive contest in which Algeria picked up two yellow cards and committed 12 fouls, but could never find a way past the Swiss defense. Switzerland, disciplined and clinical throughout, advance in what is a historically resilient tournament performance, continuing their tradition of grinding out results when it matters most on the world stage.
