Switzerland passed the test by winning the UEFA EURO 2024 Round of 16 game on Saturday 29 June 2024 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany. On the other hand, Italy failed the test against Switzerland in a major international tournament (World Cup + European Championships) for the first time since the 1954 World Cup and fails in its attempt to defend the European title won in the summer of 2021.

Italy lost the round of 16 match against Switzerland and was eliminated from EURO 2024 at the end of a match played subpar by Spalletti’s team. Italy failed to defend the title. No excuses, this is a big flop for Italian football.  Switzerland scoring a goal in each half with Bologna midfielder Remo Freuler, in the first half, and with Vargas, at the start of the second half. The Azzurri then try to organize a reaction, hit two posts but never manage to change the momentum of the match.

Italy and Switzerland have met 60 times: Italy 29 wins, Switzerland 7 wins, and 24 draws.

✅ Stats before the game: This will be the fifth meeting between Switzerland and Italy in a major international tournament (European/World Cup); the Swiss won the two matches at the 1954 World Cup (2-1 in the group and 4-1 in the group play-offs), while the Azzurri won the last two matches 3-0, in the 1962 World Cup and at the EURO 2020, both in the groups. Since winning 1-0 in World Cup qualifying in May 1993, Switzerland have not won in 11 matches against Italy in all competitions (D6, D5). The Swiss have a longer winless streak only against England (13 games) and Russia (12, including matches against the USSR), while Italy is unbeaten in more matches only against Finland (14) and Turkey ( 13). Switzerland has reached the knockout stage in each of the last six major international tournaments (European/World Cup), since the 2014 World Cup: the only European national team with a longer open streak of participation at this stage than the national team Swiss is France (seven in a row).
