Switzerland got their Euro 2016
campaign off to a positive start, after securing a 1-0 win over Albania in
their opener.
Schar made the most of Etrit Berisha’s mistake, who stormed out
in an attempt to clear Shaqiri’s corner, with the Swiss heading in the lone
goal in the fifth minute.
Albania faced a more daunting
task of coming back into the game, with their captain Lorik Cana getting sent
off after a second bookable offence.
Despite being a man light Albania pressed for an equaliser,
while Berisha tried to make amends for his costly error by making a string of
saves from Seferovic.
There was to be no addition to the scoreline, however, Albania
substitute Shkelzen Gashi wasting a glorious opening in the 87th minute with
defeat putting pressure on the Eagles to get a result in their next match
against hosts France in Marseille.
