did it. david and rachel, we will see how far any murray gets back in wimbledon. it's been a pleasure speaking to you, thanks so much. my thanks to david and rachel. goodbye. good evening, i'm tolson tollett, and this is your sports news. on a chaotic night of european championship action, world champions france have been sensationally knocked out of the tournament by switzerland in the biggest shock so far. france were ahead 3—1 until two late swiss goals leveled it and extra time followed. so it went to penalties. but before that, paul pogba had looked to put france into the last eight when he fired this wonderful shot into the top corner 15 minutes from time, taking them from being a goal down to 3—1 up.
11:51 pm
but the swiss weren't done, as first haris seferovic with his second, and then, a late equaliserfrom mario gavranovic left us at stalemate. and when it came to the end, it was killian mbappe who blinked as his shot was saved. switzerland, after a bit of debate, go through 5—4 on penalties. and they'll face spain in the last eight after one of the most extraordinary games of the tournament against croatia. spain had given away an early lead through a calamitous own goal, their goalkeeper, unai simon, completely missing that back pass. but the 2012 winners recovered and went 3—1 up, with chelsea's cesar azpilicueta among the scorers, only to give up their two goal advantage in the last ten minutes. a last—minute croatia equaliser sent this match to extra time at 3—3.

but in the extra period back came spain again, they scored two more goals to go through 5—3. well, this time tomorrow, england will know their euro 2020 fate. the squad have arrived at their london hotel ahead of tomorrow's last 16 match against germany — who could be without ilkay gundogan, antonio rudiger and robin gosens for the match at wembley. the england manager says his side are ready to seize their moment. every time you pull an england shirt on, you have the opportunity to score a goal that will be shown forever, to recreate a bit of skill or to be involved in a match that lives in the memory. and that's the beauty of playing for your country. it's a game of football these boys have played hundreds of times, and there is, of course, great excitement with fans and people tuning into the game. but we've got to trust in the way we prepare, transferring what we do in training into the game and focus

look what determination does. look what wimbledon does. second set to murray. for a while, the third was a celebration. it was 2013 again! it was staggering. from 5—0 up, murray hit a wall and fell, to lose it 7—5. well, hold on. close the roof, turn on the lights, and summon something. murray found a way to fight, to move and, yes, to win. 6—3 in the fourth. i keep getting asked if this is going to be my last wimbledon, last match. i don't know why i keep getting asked about it. no, i'm going to keep playing, i want to play. cheering and applause well, some first day — and night. i can tell you british teenager jack? draper took a set off novak djokovic, but lost. that sloane stephens returned to form to knock out petra kvitova, and finally, to remind you, there's a fortnight of this.
