The Swiss claimed a two-goal lead by the break against Hungary through Kwadwo Duah and Michel Aebischer.
Hungary hit back in the second period through Barnabas Varga, but Breel Embolo lobbed home late on to seal the game.
Bore draw with Slovenia seals England progress
England marginally improved on the Denmark display with better stats against Slovenia in their final group-stage match but a dire 0-0 draw did little to inspire hope of significant improvements.
Bukayo Saka did have a tap in ruled out for offside in the first half but the travelling support made their feelings known to the manager and players after the full-time whistle.
Harry Kane and Morten Hjulmand exchanged first half strikes in a 1-1 draw in the second round of matches in Group C.
The latter’s a thunderbolt from outside the area, 10 minutes before the break to level Kane’s 14th-minute opener.
The Danes dominated all the stats leaving the English with yet more questions to answer.
Jude Bellingham scored the only goal and the Real Madrid midfielder was the Player of the Match as he lifted a drab English display.
England arrived in Germany as one of the favourites, thanks to a richly talented squad.
Bundesliga’s top goalscorer in Harry Kane is their captain, while in their ranks are Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham and Manchester City’s Phil Foden, who was the English Premier League’s player of the year last season.
However, they are just one of a number of fancied sides and their prospects have diminished following their poor displays in the tournament to date.
Gareth Southgate’s side are still in the tournament and, as long as they are there, then they’ll have a chance. We’ll take you through the route to this stage for both England and Switzerland next.
The big news for England is that Jude Bellingham has avoided a suspension for the quarter-final, with the midfielder receiving a fine and a suspended ban for his gesture against Slovakia.
Regarding the decision, Uefa said that “said suspension is not immediately enforced and is subject to a probationary period of one year starting from the date of the present decision.”
Marc Guehi is suspended meaning England’s back line will change for the first time at the tournament. Lewis Dunk, Joe Gomez and Ezri Konsa are the options, with the latter possibly first in line after an appearance already, albeit as sub at left-back.
However, England may need an alteration at left-back too after Kieran Trippier went off injured in the last game, with Luke Shaw not yet considered ready for action by the head coach. Gomez or Konsa can fill in there - but Kyle Walker shifting across and Trent Alexander-Arnold playing on the right is also a consideration if Trippier doesn’t return.
There have been rumours of England fielding a back three, with Bukayo Saka coming in at left wing-back, where he originally made his name at Arsenal.
There remain concerns over the best partner for Declan Rice in midfield, but it is likely that Kobbie Mainoo will start once more.
Switzerland team news
Switzerland strolled through against Italy with no further apparent injury concerns or bookings, with Silvan Widmer now back from a ban. Denis Zakaria still hasn’t played at the tournament as he nurses ongoing fitness issues.
Granit Xhaka had to have scans on an adductor injury, but he has been cleared to play.
The Swiss have played several different personnel throughout the tournament so far, though their 3-4-2-1-type formation has remained the same throughout. Dan Ndoye has popped up on at right-back and on both sides of the advanced midfield two, with Breel Embolo likely to lead the line and Ruben Vargas likely to start in an attacking role.
Manuel Akanji and Fabian Schar will keep their places in defence, with Remo Freuler, Granit Xhaka and Michel Aebischer probably making up the rest of the midfield.
Predicted lineups
England XI: Pickford, Alexander-Arnold, Stones, Konsa, Walker, Rice, Mainoo, Palmer, Bellingham, Foden, Kane
The quarter-final matches take place on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 July, with England’s game with Switzerland on the latter at 5pm BST at the Merkur Spiel-Arena in Dusseldorf.

Without a grand alteration of tempo or tactics it’s hard to see even individual moments overcoming how cohesive the Swiss have been, particularly in attack. England 1-2 Switzerland.
