WORLD CUP 2018: Shaqiri late Switzerland winner sinks Serbia

Switzerland came out on top in what turned out to be a tight encounter against Serbia, thanks to a comeback inspired by Granit Xhaka and in doing so, they became the first nation to secure a win at the 2018 World Cup finals after conceding first.

Aleksander Mitrovic opened the scoring in the fifth minute for Serbia after Dusan Tadic found him with a superb cross. The goal put Serbia in front, but Switzerland maintained control of the game, as they kept 61% of the ball in the first ten minutes.
