Sweden vs Switzerland: Match in pictures

An Emil Forsberg was enough to see Sweden edge out Switzerland to qualify for the quarterfinals for the first time since 1994.

Emil Forsberg's goal in the 66th minute gave Sweden the win. He opened his tally in the tournament with his 13th attempt.

Forsberg was helped with a lucky deflection off the leg of Manuel Akanji. Yan Sommer was wrong footed and couldn't help but watch the ball sail into the net.

It was disappointment for the Swiss having seen their team fail to progress past the Round-of-16 stage in four successive World Cups.

End of a golden generation? The 2018 event may be the last time several of the Switzerland players play in a World Cup.

Sweden has kept a clean sheet for the first time in 60 years. (excluding third place play-off game)

Switzerland players look dejected at full-time. They were the No. 6 ranked side coming into the tournament.

Xherdan Shaqiri endured a horrid evening on the pitch.

Switzerland threw the kitchen sink at the Swedish defence but it held its own to come out with a 1-0 win.

It was an evening of joy for the Swedish fans who had turned up to watch their team qualify for the quarterfinals for the first time since 1994.

An Argentinian and a Mexican share a light moment before kick-off at the St. Petersburg Stadium.
