Better against Spain Shaqiri scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) and created three chances from eight crosses (four accurate) during Friday's loss to Spain on penalties.
Impact Shaqiri did all that he could to take down another giant, but Remo Freuler's red card prevented him from finishing the game as more defensive depth was needed. He'll end the tournament with three goals and one assist in five starts-a tally that could be higher than his entire upcoming club season at Liverpool.

Struggles against France Shaqiri had one chance created and one foul drawn in Monday's win against France.
Impact Shaqiri was subbed off in the 73rd minute Monday and maybe for the first time in the tournament, Switzerland played better without him. He remains a large part of the team's attack, but without 90 minutes in the cards, he won't hold as much fantasy value in knockout stages, as he has no hope of playing into extra time.

Ready for another major tournament Shaqiri started in Thursday's friendly win for Switzerland over Liechenstein.
Impact Shaqiri is one of the players often found at international tournaments in which a single team is exceptionally dependent on their production. He's recently been subbed out for Steven Zuber after the first half of friendlies in preparation for the Euros, but that's not a situation designed for success when competitive matches begin. Shaqiri has only made 21 league appearances over the past two seasons.
