Bukayo Saka’s fantastic strike cancelled out Breel Embolo’s opening goal to force the match into extra time.
Both sides had sights of goal but a penalty shootout was eventually required to settle the tie. Manuel Akanji’s miss from the spot-kick was all that the Three Lions needed to book their place in the next stage of the competition.
One of his passes was a key pass.
The United star saw two of his shots at Yann Sommer in the Switzerland goal blocked.
Mainoo tried to ping one long ball and successfully found an England teammate.
He delved into four ground duels and came out on top on three occasions. The teenager was required to contest one aerial duel, which he won.
The midfielder made one clearance and three times as many interceptions. He also put in one tackle.
Mainoo was replaced by United teammate Luke Shaw after 78 minutes of regular time. The appearance off the bench was Shaw’s first taste of action at Euro 2024.
Shaw instantly slotted at left-back.
The defender made two clearances and won the one aerial duel he challenged for. Shaw touched the ball 32 times and delivered two of the three long balls he attempted.
Mainoo and Shaw will undoubtedly be hoping that their performances against Switzerland were sufficient to secure them a spot in the semi-finals, where they will take on either Turkiye or the Netherlands.
