    Dan: That VAR call felt equivalent to an umpire's call in cricket… if Michael Oliver gives a yellow for that (which I feel would have been appropriate) I don’t think the decision gets overturned

    Switzerland 1-1 Spain

    Switzerland will be happy to take this to extra time now and they are having to repel some Spain attacks. Gerard Moreno bends an effort from the edge of the box at goal but too close to Yann Sommer.

    They're still in this game Switzerland, even with 10 men, they're still in this game.

    Ash: Switzerland have scored a goal, an own goal and have had a man sent off... seems like they've done everything in this match.

    Switzerland 1-1 Spain

    The Swiss goalscorer Xherdan Shaqiri is going off. Surprised at that one as he was their most dangerous player. Djibril Sow is on in his place while Mario Gavranovic replaces Haris Seferovic.

    Josh: Never a red card. The game's gone.

    Tony: Not a red for me.

    Noel: That's a definite red, with the blades they wear he'd have cut him in two!!

    Koke sends in the free kick but Gerard Moreno flicks is header wide.

    Just over 10 minutes of normal time to go.

    That's an interesting one. When I first saw it I thought that's a red. I've seen the replay, I think he's unlucky. I think it's his trailing leg that catches Moreno.

    The decision stands and Remo Freuler heads off down the tunnel.

    Seems harsh, but Switzerland have a free kick to defend now...

    Remo Freuler is sent off for a late, sliding challenge on Gerard Moreno.

    Switzerland down to 10 men, although VAR is going to have a look at this...

    Spain play the corner short again before Koke's ball in flicked on but Steven Zuber does just enough to flick the ball back to his keeper.

    César Azpilicueta runs onto Gerard Moreno's ball into the box and then squares across goal but there's no team-mate to turn in.

    Soon after, Dani Olmo wins a corner as Spain finally show their teeth.

    Switzerland are very much on the front foot now as they push for a winner.

    Xherdan Shaqiri starts another attack but it ends with Steven Zuber's header across goal being cleared.

    Just one goal for Liverpool last season for Xherdan Shaqiri but he's been flying at the Euros so far with this his third goal of the tournament. Everything good Switzerland have done in this game he has been involved in and now he has the all important equaliser.

    Now that's just sloppy from the Spanish.

    Try to play out from the back, not playing the right pass at the right time. It fell at Shaqiri's feet on his right foot, and it just hits the far post.

    They've deserved it. Spain have got to do more. They have the ammunition, but I haven't seen it yet.

    Xherdan Shaqiri

    The equaliser!

    There's a mix up in defence as Aymeric Laporte knocks the ball into his team-mate Pau Torres inside the box and Remo Freuler gleefully picks up the loose ball. He then squares for Xherdan Shaqiri to sweep in.

    Game on!
