Switzerland qualified for the knockout stages of the European Championship for the first time and France went through as Group A winners after a lively 0-0 draw between the sides on Sunday.
France had the better of the chances with Paul Pogba going close twice in the first half while substitute Dimitri Payet almost continued his fine tournament but struck the bar with a first-time effort in the second period, dpa reported.
France top the group on seven points with the Swiss going through to the last 16 automatically after finishing second on five points.
France next meet a third-placed side from Groups C D or E in Lyon on Sunday in the first knock-out round while Switzerland will face the runners-up from Group C on Saturday in St. Etienne.
