Switzerland is through to the knockout round of the Euros. The team booked its place after Denmark beat Russia last night 4-1.

The result means the Switzerland will go through as one of the best performing third placed group finishers. 

But which team and where the next game will be is still unknown. But possible matches will be Belgium on Sunday or Sweden on Tuesday - If it's that game, that will be in Glasgow. 

Switzerland will be hoping it won’t be set to meet the group F winner on Monday – that could still be either France, Germany or Portugal.

If the team manages to go through to the next round after that, it will keep football writers busy for years.
