Germany and Switzerland played out a 1-1 draw in their final Group A match of Euro 2024 at the Frankfurt Arena.

Here are the major talking points and stats from the big clash:

Neuer’s Euro legacy

German Manuel Neuer became the goalkeeper with the most appearances in the history of the European Championships after he was named in the starting lineup of the match between Germany and Switzerland being played at the Frankfurt Arena.

With 18 appearances in the Euros, Neuer set the record after overtaking Italy’s Gianluigi Buffon.

Germany’s consistent starting 11

For the first time in Euro history, Germany named an unchanged XI for three games in a row. Despite assuring round of 16 spot, Nagelsmann has opted to play his main players and not give any sub a chance in the starting lineup.

Dan Ndoye scored his career’s first international goal against Germany in the first half. He came close to scoring again moments later but just missed the target.

Tah misses next game

Jonathan Tah was awarded a yellow card against Switzerland for a challenge on Breel Embolo. Tah received a yellow card in Germany’s opening match against Scotland as well and hence with two yellow cards to his name, he will miss the Round of 16 match.
