Switzerland have brushed aside Bulgaria 4-0 to secure a place at next year’s World Cup in Qatar.
Playing in Lucerne on Monday night, Switzerland qualified for a fifth successive World Cup, having also hit the post twice and had two goals ruled out for offside as they cut through the Bulgarian defence with ease.
It was a special night for Swiss captain Xherdan Shaqiri, who marked his 100th appearance with an excellent performance, setting up the Swiss opener.
Switzerland are certainly enjoying a strong run, having almost made it to the semifinals of the delayed Euro 2020 in July, losing on penalties to Spain.
