Take a bow, Xherdan Shaqiri.
The Stoke City playmaker came to Switzerland's rescue with arguably the best goal thus far at Euro 2016 when his acrobatic bicycle-kick brought his team level with Poland in the second half of Saturday's Round of 16 encounter.
Shaqiri's sublime finish was the end product of a period of sustained pressure from the Swiss, who levelled the match at one apiece with less than 10 minutes remaining before extra time.
4 - Xherdan Shaqiri has scored four times at major tournaments for #SUI, only behind Josef Hügi (6). Specialist.
