It's a good point, but without knowing tomorrow's results, it probably won't matter much aside from the psychological boost you get from winning a game against one of the favorites. 2nd place might just end up being the easier path, who knows? Switzerland would take the W of course, but I think a draw does indeed suit them just fine and I'd be surprised if they go all out. 

A1 plays C2, which is going to be Slovenia/Serbia/Denmark.
A2 plays B2, which is going to be Italy/Croatia.

I'm taking the A1 option.

Hungarian national anthem: 5/10 would not listen again. Just a bit dull innit?

[eenie]

Scottish national anthem: 11/10 GOAT anthem.

'mon Scotland! Intae thum!

[Wavelberry]

Well, he's not gone for anything experimental with that line-up has he. 

[Wavelberry]

Straight to Ralston already lol.

[av3ry]

False start 

[Rob1981]

Come on Scotland. Do it for Jim.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Haha, that player bolting into the Scottish half before kick off.

[Wavelberry]

This is going to be torture.

[Haguey]

Surely the Hungarian lad has to pass there

Probably but with how Gunn has been so far this tournament I don't blame him for having a go at this stage of the game

C2 could also be England, and then most likely Spain in the QF. 

[GunmaN1905]

Germany takes the lead, Andrich.

I guess first place is settled.

Looked like a foul by Musiala, though.

And a poor reaction from Sommer.

[ThanatosAFC]

Lol sommer

[DJ]

Sommer at fault there. 

[Darius1998]

Crap keeping but that looks like a foul by Musiala earlier.

[GunmaN1905]

He hasn't made a mistake like this all season long, luckily it's a foul.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Orsato. 

[CFuller]

Yellow card for Sztylesz.

[Freakiie]

Sommer saved by VAR.

[JJ72]

How is that a foul?

The ball swerved and bounced wickedly

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

Ah, that's unfortunate. Ever so slightly a foul by Musiala.

Wtf. Callum Styles playing for Hungary  So confused there as I heard comms say his name so just assumed he was Scottish and looked up and saw him in a white kit

[Wavelberry]

McGinn using his arse to win the ball and then that free-kick. Truly no one matches it.

Has Hungarian (and Ukrainian) grandparents.

[av3ry]

Ref in the Germany game:

"Upon VAR review there was no offside for the goal... However there was a foul in the build-up. Goal disallowed"

Hungary clearly know this so are fouling him at every opportunity.

He's getting booted up and down the park!

[Haguey]

Hungary are garbage, deserve to go out. Come on Scotland I guess

[HOORAY HENRIK]

Move the ball quicker ffs

[Wavelberry]

I like Callum McGregor as a player but he has looked well off it in all these games so far.

[GunmaN1905]

And here we go, Swiss take the lead!

[Rebs]

Swiss leading Germany.

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

offsides I think

[Smallen]

surely Scotland have got a striker better than Che Adams that’s also actually Scottish?

Edited June 23 by Smallen

[DJ]

BAM! Another goal for the highlight reals

[georginho_juventusygr]

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!

[PaulHartman71]

Thought that was off on the first replay. 

Very well worked goal to be fair from the Swiss. 

[PaulHartman71]

So close to 2-0 

[Darius1998]

Nearly another for Ndoye.

He wants to play for Scotland and he's put in a full shift every single time he's pulled on the jersey for us, so leave it out with the "actually Scottish" crap, will ye? He's Scottish enough for us.

[Smallen]

Ndoye has looked bright most of the tournament for the Swiss. Surprised to see he hasn’t scored more for Bologna than he has.

[ThanatosAFC]

Defense from Germany looks questionable 

[Haguey]

Oof, awaiting ROB with the permutations but a quick look suggests Italy are likely in the R16 for Germany if they lose tonight...

[Wavelberry]

Scottish commentators lamenting the Swiss goal like 2nd place was ever a ting.

sorry eenie 

[DJ]

N'Doye playing with fire

[BoroPhil]

Yeah but in WC86 surely it was 2 points for a win?

Correct. That is likely with a Switzerland win, unless Croatia win against Italy and beat Italy to the B2 spot.

Swiss goal comes with pros and cons from an English point of view. On the one hand, if Switzerland win the group we could potentially slip up, finish as group runners-up and still avoid Germany in the R16. But means if we win our group we could get Germany in the QF instead of Italy/Croatia/Switzerland.
