At the Switzerland camp up in the hills outside Stuttgart, they have been playing a lot of Uno. One of a number of “stupid card games” the squad have got into, according to the winger Steven Zuber; it is a pastime that looks easy to start with. But judicious use of the plus-four card is something that only comes with experience.
On the field, Switzerland are no novices and have certainly been playing their cards right. With an average age of 30, they have held Germany to a draw and dispatched the holders, Italy. Next up are England and Zuber is among the contingent who have seen it and done it.
