For Switzerland it might mean stopping Argentinian forward Lionel Messi.
“How to stop Messi? We’ll show you tomorrow how we do it,” Switzerland coach Ottmar Hitzfeld said, via FIFA. “Of course I’ve thought with the staff how to go on and continue to the quarter-finals – so I don’t think it’s going to be my last match.”
Hitzfeld added: “I think any defence will face problems when facing Messi. But problems are there to be solved. I trust my people, I trust my defence and the entire team. The entire team will have to perform, but I’m optimistic.
“I’ve had many challenges in my career. At the World Cup in South Africa, despite having four points we didn’t make it into the second round so we have fulfilled this little dream, making it into the last 16.
“We just want to go on fulfilling the dreams we have. For me personally it’s definitely a highlight in my career as a coach.”
