Switzerland relegated from Nations League A

Switzerland suffered a 2-1 defeat to the Czech Republic and was relegated from League A of the Nations League.

Switzerland needed a win to avoid relegation, but they fell behind to a Jakub Pesek goal in the first half. Breel Embolo equalised for Switzerland after the break, but Patrik Schick scored the winner for the Czech Republic in the 90th minute.

The result means that Switzerland will now play in League B of the Nations League next season. The Czech Republic, meanwhile, will remain in League A.

Switzerland's relegation from League A is a disappointing result for the team.

They were one of the favourites to win the Nations League, but they have now failed to qualify for the semi-finals in both editions of the tournament.

Switzerland's poor form in the Nations League is a concern for the team ahead of the World Cup in Qatar later this year.

The Czech Republic's victory is a major boost for the team.

They have now won three of their four Nations League games and are in contention to qualify for the semi-finals.

The Czech Republic's victory is also a boost for manager Jaroslav Silhavy. He has been under pressure after a poor run of results, but his team's performance against Switzerland will give him some breathing space.
