Suiza 2:1 Canadá — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Johan Manzambi starred as Switzerland edged Canada 2-1 in the World Cup to set up a meeting with Algeria in the next round. The Swiss, marginal favourites beforehand, delivered a disciplined performance that ultimately proved just enough to see off a stubborn Canadian side who refused to go quietly.

The match turned in the opening minute of the second half when Johan Manzambi slipped a clever pass through to Ruben Vargas, who swept Switzerland ahead from close range. Manzambi then got on the scoresheet himself in the 57th minute, finishing smartly after Breel Embolo had teed him up, before Promise Akinpelu pulled one back for Canada in the 76th minute with an assist from Nathan Saliba, setting up a tense finale.

Switzerland deserved the win on balance, controlling both halves with measured possession and sharper finishing when it mattered. CheckLive's model rated Switzerland marginally ahead, and the result confirmed that prediction, with the live signals backing the Swiss at 1.35 and winning comfortably enough. Switzerland now face Algeria in the next round.
