Switzerland – Group E – Xherdan Shaqiri
One of just two players to score a hat-trick in the group stages of the tournament, Bayern Munich star Xherdan Shaqiri’s decisive contribution against Honduras was key to Switzerland’s qualification.
Allowed something of a free role within the confines of Ottmar Hitzfeld’s usually rigid system, Shaqiri’s silkiness and dribbling skills are key to the hopes of the Swiss against Argentina in the second round.
