Mbappe was comforted by his teammates following his devastating penalty miss

Haris Seferovic headed Switzerland ahead before they had a penalty saved.

Karim Benzema then netted twice in quick fashion before a stunning strike from Paul Pogba looked to have put France out of sight at 3-1.

But Vladimir Petkovic’s valiant Swiss side came storming back and remarkably sent the game into extra-time with two late goals.

Mbappe missed the opportunity to win it for France in extra-time and was then the only player to miss in the shootout, as Switzerland sealed the biggest win in their history.
