There were several ripped shirts and even a burst ball during France's 0-0 draw with Switzerland on Sunday at the European Championship. France twice hit the crossbar as it again squandered numerous chances, but the torn Switzerland shirts and the ball being ripped apart during a challenge will likely end up being the most memorable moments of the match at Stade Pierre Mauroy. Switzerland midfielder Admir Mehmedi's shirt was torn in the first half, forcing him to the sidelines for a backup.
