Spain won 3-1 in a penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw in their European Championship quarter-final in Saint Petersburg on Friday to book their place in the semi-final.
Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal struck the winning penalty after Switzerland’s Ruben Vargas fired over the bar.
In open play, Spain took an early lead when Jordi Alba’s shot from outside the box was deflected into his own net by Denis Zakaria.
But Xherdan Shaqiri profited from a defensive error to level the score at 1-1, before the Swiss lost midfielder Remo Freuler to a straight red card on 77 minutes.
