Liverpool playmaker Xherdan Shaqiri was delighted after helping Switzerland claim a 3-1 victory over Turkey on Sunday.

Shaqiri scored a classy brace as the Swiss secured third place in Group A with four points, likely enough for them to be amongst one of the best third-placed sides.

"I think we played like a unit, and it was crucial today against this team," Shaqiri told beIN Sports after the full-time whistle. "We knew if we play good we're going to create a lot of chances against this team, and we did so.

"We're very pleased with the win today and very happy. The other team, they have qualities, they can score any time.

"We could have scored maybe one or two goals more, for sure, but at the end of the day, it was important to win the game and we did that."

He added: "[I'm pleased] especially the first one with my right foot, it was really good technique.

"I'm very happy and very pleased that I could help the team with my two goals and that we reacted after the defeat against Italy, it was very good today. I'm very pleased for the performance of the team."
