The Azurris of Italy on Saturday evening crashed out of the ongoing Euro 2024 tournament holding in Germany after losing 2-0 to Switzerland.
Remo Freuler and Ruben Vargas scored the goals that propelled Switzerland to the quarter-finals, overcoming a surprisingly weak Italian team.
In the 37th minute, Freuler controlled a low cross with his first touch and volleyed the ball into the bottom corner from nine yards to register the first goal of the thrilling encounter.
Upon resumption of second half, Vargas curled an absolute beauty into the top corner in the 46th minute.
All efforts to score or reduce the deficit proved abortive for the Italians.
The results meant that defending Champions Italy are out of the tournament after failing to register a goal in the round of 16 cracker against Switzerland.
