France would have won the game in regular time as they were leading 3-1 with ten minutes to the end of the game, but they allowed their opponents to score two more goals before crashing out.

According to the report on Mirror and Complete Sports, Gary Neville and Roy Keane were not impressed with Paul Pogba's game in the second half against Switzerland.

Gary Neville explained below:

“We saw the best and the worst of him in the second half. This is the best of him, absolutely world class strike. Brilliant.

''Pogba played a great pass through just before that, he was starting to get into the game, combining, he was running the game.''

Roy Keane on the other hand claimed that Paul Pogba took many risks in the encounter against Switzerland.

“He takes risks on the ball, but you want those risks to be in the final third, not in the defensive third, and they get counter-attacked on."
