Didier Deschamps’s France were beaten by Switzerland on penalties in the round of 16 and eliminated from Euro 2020.
Following a thrilling 3-3 draw after extra time, Switzerland scored all five of their penalties before Kylian Mbappé missed the final spot kick for the French at the National Arena in Bucharest.

The Swiss, managed by Vladimir Petkovic, slipped into the next round as one of the best teams who placed third in the groups and secured the biggest shock of the tournament on Monday night as they came back from two goals down in the final ten minutes.
These are the best tweets and jokes as France are knocked out of Euro 2020 by Switzerland:
Switzerland had an unfair advantage playing in front of a neutral crowd.
