Jammy bastards 
. I've seen goalkeepers moving up and down a lot but I think Simon was really putting the Swiss off.

Wow I guess going first really is important in pens.
Sucks for the Swiss. But they lost that. Should've made those shots.
They are just ONE game away from the final and two from winning it. They genuinely can win it now.
Fair point.
In theory, yes. In practice, they are lucky c unts.
Those Swiss pens were absolutely atrocious. How the hell did they go 5/5 last time
The swiss shat their pants during the penalties today
Spain one of the favourites to win it now, no idea how. I think they'll actually do very well against either Italy or Belgium

swiss season ticket holder of united... m. oliver...

Portugal 2016 vibes.
Can't believe that RED. Why are they so incompetent? All he had to do.was give an yellow and look at VAR. Feck , to make that kind of mistake in a QF match is criminal. Oliver shouldn't officiate any match .
Switzerland would have won that match if not for that RED.

You'd have to feel sorry for Milan Barros in goal there. He couldn't have done anymore.
I wasn't aware, just assumed he was Spain's number 1
Great contribution to the tournament from Switzerland.
Are the russians invading?
Lloris vs Simon.Those Swiss pens were absolutely atrocious. How the hell did they go 5/5 last time
Also they were mentally shattered after this one I think.
Spain's football is pure terrorism
So many right footers go for the left side of the goal. I used to prefer going for the left myself aswell but I knew keepers were onto it and practiced walloping it low or high right side of the net, as a right footer aswell.
Everyone shat on Spain after the first two matches.
Now everyone is shitting on them again.
Watch them beat either Italy or Belgium.

Knocking out the overrated French ?
The contrast in quality from the penalties against France is unbelievable. As if somehow all Swiss players were possessed.
Really? I don’t mind them. They score plenty of goals & can’t defend. Fun watch.
Sure. An OG, dubious red and all will help.
That was some rubbish penalty shootout.
Lloris didn't save a single penalty, and he didn't move much to confuse swiss players.Those Swiss pens were absolutely atrocious. How the hell did they go 5/5 last time
Nah, I think they’d be quite tight.
Whys Vargas getting consoled like he’s to blame because he went last, annoys me that. Two other dickheads before missed theirs. No excuses for 3 pen misses in a row though, especially when it swung in their favour after Rodri missed his.
This was at Wembley? That place is bad luck.
Except us on last World cup, did any team on big competition won back to back penalties? I have a feeling that every time when team wins once on pens, loses next pen shootout
Infuriating.
Matterface is awful. “Real Betis goalkeeper Unai Simon” he plays for Bilbao ffs.
I think Italy would be a terrible team for them. They seem really susceptible to pace.
They're like van Gaal on crack. Crab football
Please no. Enough of that football
I think he's getting consoled because he's (justifiably) distraught
Suisse goalkeeper Sommer is my man of the match.
Rodri's penalty was the worst of the bunch, even worse than Vargas'.
It’s something only the bravest managers would do. I’m not even dissing Ole, most managers wouldn’t do it. LVG did it. I think Sarri tried to do it & Kepa refused to come off.
Spain are like a really blunt drill that is being turned really slowly.
What a classy move by Thiago to console Vargas there. Some of the best sportsmanship I've seen in a long time. Great moment.
