    Dear god, I will never see those hours of my life again, what a waste.
    So pleased the Swiss are out, what an uninspiring incompetant team. Watchting them makes our lack of particapation all the more depressing.
    This is worse then Germany versus Paraguay match from the 2002 world cup, at though least I didn't get up at 7:30am for this I suppose.
    Just meh!

    Yeah they went out at the second group stage without losing a single match.

    Yeah. Switzerland were a pretty ugly team to watch alright. Reminded me a lot of Ireland under Charlton.

    Funny how we never complained as much when it was our own, but there you go.

    I only watched the last 20 minutes of normal time and the whole of extra time but to me it seemed like the Ukraine were the ones holding out for penos. Looking at the stats and it's all in Switzerland's favour:

    Maybe we're just biased against with Swiss. :) Anyway, the only winner from last night is surely Italy. Ukraine have been terrible this WC. I didn't see their match against Saudi Arabia but their other 3 performances were really terrible.
