2014 WORLD CUP - DAY 04 - GROUP E - Switzerland vs Ecuador 2:1

GROUP E

Switzerland vs Ecuador 2:1

 

Switzerland dramatically came from behind to beat Ecuador in their World Cup Group E opener courtesy of goals from two substitutes in Brasilia.

Admir Mehmedi was on the pitch for just 121 seconds, when he headed home an equaliser after Enner Valencia's opener, with goalkeeper Alexander Dominguez nowhere to be seen.

Seferovic's strike also makes sure there has been no draws in this year's tournament, the first time since 1934.

No more than 18 seconds after Valon Behrami produced a brilliant tackle to prevent Michael Arroyo from scoring a last gasp winner for Ecuador, Haris Seferovic was slotting home a winner for Switzerland with virtually the last kick of the game.

 

SQUADS:
SWITZERLAND ECUADOR

Switzerland:
47' Mehmedi
