Euro 2016: Albania 0-1 Switzerland

A bit excitable.

That best describes Albania, understandable as it was their first ever international tournament.

Their goalkeeper was guilty of it, rushing out to claim a ball that was never his, and conceding the game's only goal. And their captain was guilty of it, double-yellowed before we'd even reached half-time.

But even with a man down, the Albanians kept the score down, in what looked an interesting game, with plenty of chances, and an Albanian dominated crowd that was up for it.

There were a couple of beards on show, but these were little more than stubble, so no Beard Of The Match award here. Must do better.
