Nizhny Novgorod: Switzerland moved through to the World Cup last 16, after a draw over Costa Rica but will be without captain Stephan Lichtsteiner because of suspension.

A 93rd minute own goal by unfortunate keeper Yann Sommer from a Bryan Ruiz penalty gave the central American side a deserved 2-2 draw on a night of late drama.

That wiped out a Swiss lead which had lasted only two minutes after substitute Josep Drmic slotted home to apparently give the Swiss an undeserved victory.

Earlier Blerim Dzemaili had thumped home in the first half to give Switzerland the lead against the run of play in the 31st minute against the team who finished bottom of Group E. That goal was cancelled out by Kendall Waston’s header in the 56th minute, the Central American’s first goal of the tournament.

The draw ensured Switzerland finished second in the group behind Brazil. But Switzerland will be left counting the cost after yellow cards for experienced defenders Lichtsteiner and Fabian Schaer means they will miss the game against Sweden in St Petersburg, July 3.

Lichtsteiner received a yellow card for a late tackle on Daniel Colindres in the 37th minute. This was his second yellow card after being booked in the opening game against Brazil. Then later on Schaer also received his second yellow card of the tournament, also ruling him out of the Sweden match.
