Thirteen of the past 15 shootouts at World Cups have been won by the team that went secondBy Opta AnalystAfter watching 120 minutes of football, you might not find observing a coin toss the most exciting dessert. Fans in the stadium care, though. Win a coin toss for a penalty shootout and you choose the end where they are taken – to much rejoicing from those behind the chosen goal. Another coin toss also allows the winner to choose whether to go first or second. But does that decision actually matter?For years, the consensus was that going first in a shootout gives teams an advantage. Being able to take the lead and put scoreboard pressure on opponents surely has a mental benefit, and means they are more likely to face the dreaded “must-score” penalty. However, when Rubén Vargas tucked away the winning spot kick for Switzerland against Colombia in their last-16 tie, it continued a rather curious trend. Continue reading...

Ruben Vargas converted the final penalty to send Switzerland to their first World Cup quarter-final since 1954 after a goalless stalemate against Colombia in Vancouver on Tuesday. The Swiss go on to face title holders Argentina, who survived an almighty scare against Egypt earlier in the day.
Switzerland claimed a narrow 2-1 victory over Canada at BC Place in Vancouver to secure top spot in Group B. Ruben Vargas and Johan Manzambi scored for the Swiss, while Promise David's late effort proved only a consolation as Canada fell short in a tightly contested encounter between two evenly matched sides.
Switzerland put on a devastating display at the Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles, overwhelming Bosnia-Herzegovina 4-1 after a stunning second-half turnaround. With Bosnia down to ten men following an 80th-minute red card, substitutes Jovan Manzambi and Ruben Vargas ran riot. Ermin Mahmic's late strike provided only consolation for the Bosnians.
The hype around Johan Manzambi will only heighten after his star turn from the substitutes’ bench helped Switzerland out of a hole and got their World Cup truly up and running. The 20-year-old managed to excel despite Freiburg’s comprehensive Europa League final defeat against Aston Villa last month and, with 73 minutes gone and 166 seconds after entering as part of a transformative triple substitution here, his superb volley put an end to a sterile contest, hooking a right-foot shot into the Bosnia and Herzegovina net.Until that point Switzerland had another eight fruitless shots to file with the 26 they mustered in their disappointing opening draw against Qatar, their sole goal a Breel Embolo penalty. Things kept unravelling in the final third. But Manzambi brought great poise and scored twice, his first when he lashed Amar Memic’s headed clearance past Nikola Vasilj and the second understated but sumptuous. It was also Manzambi’s feathery pass that released Embolo on goal, prompting the defender Tarik Muharemovic to lunge in and leave Bosnia and Herzegovina with 10 men, before Rubén Vargas and Granit Xhaka, with the final kick, completed the scoring.
