Switzerland warmed up with a 4-0 victory over visitors Estonia on Tuesday in their penultimate match before heading to Euro 2024 in Germany. 


The hosts cruised to victory in front of 14,473 spectators at the Swissporarena here in their first home match since November.


Meanwhile, Italy stuttered to a 0-0 draw at home to Turkey in the first of two warm-up matches before it begins the defense of its European Championship title next week.


Tuesday’s match was overshadowed by a serious-looking injury to Turkey defender Ozan Kabak, who appears more than likely to miss Euro 2024 in Germany.
