Switzerland finally ended their World Cup knockout hoodoo by beating Algeria 2-0 to set up a last-16 meeting with either Colombia or Ghana.

The Swiss, who had been eliminated in each of their past seven knockout games at the tournament, brought an end to 88 years of knockout pain as goals from Breel Embolo (10) and Nottingham Forest's Dan Ndoye (46) secured victory in Vancouver.
