Switzerland’s World Cup ended in controversial fashion in a referee decision that will be debated long after the tournament ends. Swiss striker Breel Embolo was shown a second yellow card for simulation in the 72nd minute of Saturday night’s controversial 3-1 quarterfinal loss to Argentina at Arrowhead Stadium, a decision that completely changed the complexion of the match and left everyone involved with Switzerland furious. In real time, it looked as though Argentina midfielder Leandro Paredes had recklessly clipped Embolo inside the attacking third.
