Lloris: Switzerland clash will be fun and open

After tough tests against Romania and Albania, the goalkeeper says France's Euro 2016 clash with Vladimir Petkovic's side will be a bright encouter

France captain Hugo Lloris expects a "more fun" match when his side conclude their Euro 2016 Group A duties against Switzerland in Lille.

The host nation won their opening game against Romania thanks to a last-minute strike from Dimitri Payet, and only late goals from the West Ham star and Antoine Griezmann proved enough to secure victory over a stubborn Albania side.

But Lloris believes Switzerland's style of play will make for a more attractive encounter at Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Sunday as France look to justify their favourites tag by securing top spot in the group.
