#WC2018: Sweden and Switzerland 0-0 at half-time in last 16
SAINT PETERSBURG, Russia (AFP) — The World Cup last-16 match between Sweden and Switzerland was goalless at half-time in Saint Petersburg on Tuesday, after a low-key opening 45 minutes.
The Scandinavians had the better of the first-half chances, but striker Marcus Berg blazed off target when well-placed before seeing Swiss keeper Yann Sommer turn his low shot around the post.
The winners will face either England or Colombia in the quarter-finals.
