Switzerland managed to increase its attacking intensity in the second half of the match against Argentina. The Swiss team generated multiple scoring opportunities, leading to periods where the goal seemed within reach. However, the breakthrough arrived in the 67th minute when Dan Ndoye scored the equalizer.
The goal was set up by a precise assist from Ricardo Rodriguez, allowing Ndoye to calmly place the ball into the lower corner of the net, defeating Emiliano Martinez. Prior to the equalizer, the match featured significant action, notably when Martinez made a strong save against a header attempt by Ndoye, keeping the scoreline unchanged. The tension escalated further in the 70th minute, focusing attention on Breel Embolo following an intervention deemed questionable by officials.
Initially, referee Joao Pinheiro issued a yellow card to Leandro Paredes. However, following a review with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR), Pinheiro escalated the disciplinary action, sending off the Swiss striker for simulation. The second half was marked by these dramatic shifts in momentum.
Despite the sending-off, Switzerland maintained its offensive pressure throughout the latter stages of the game against Argentina.
