The centre of Nyon was a fun place to be last night whether you were routing for Portugal, Turkey, or Switzerland. Red was the predominant colour on T-shirts, flags and hats.
The area around the railway station is full of fans, and there’s a great atmosphere. No sooner had the final whistle blew after the Portugese game finished, the crowds came out to celebrate.
Meanwhile the Swiss fans walked down to the UBS arena in party mood and full of hope. It was looking so good for the first hour and the fun atmosphere continued down athe UBS arena. What a shame about the result.
The walk back up the hill from the stadium to the car park was a sad one indeed.
Still Nyon is such a cosmopolitan town there were bound to be some Turkish fans around and they were there in the rain celebrating.
