SAINT-ETIENNE, France (AP) -- As spectacular as it was, Xherdan Shaqiri's beautiful bicycle kick goal just wasn't enough. The Switzerland forward scored the goal of the tournament against Poland on Saturday, jumping with his back to the net before sending a left-footed volley inside the post from near the edge of the area. The goal made it 1-1 in the 82nd minute, but Poland managed to win a 5-4 in a penalty shootout and advance to the European Championship quarterfinals.
