Euro 2024: Defending champions Italy sent packing

Italy have been eliminated from the ongoing Euro 2024 tournament in Germany.

The defending champions lost 2-0 to Switzerland in the first Round of 16 fixture on Saturday.

The Swiss had 65 per cent of the ball and eight of the first nine attempts at goal prior, before taking the lead through Remo Freuler.

Ruben Vargas doubled their advantage just 27 seconds after the restart after the Italians lost possession from their own kick-off.

Switzerland will now face either England or Slovakia in the quarter-final next weekend in Dusseldorf.

Italy are now the third team in the last three European Championships to have been eliminated in the round of 16 after winning the tournament.
