'Typical'. Why Xhaka will miss Switzerland's Round of 8 game v Spain

Granit Xhaka will be forced to watch the Spain v Switzerland game from the stands.

The Switzerland captain got booked in the second half of the clash against France for arguing with the referee.

And it's his second yellow card in the competition, which means he is suspended for the next game.

Curiously, Xhaka received his first booking (v Turkey) for dissent as well.

The Arsenal midfielder received the Star of the Match award for his dazzling display against France.

Granit is notorious for getting unnecessary yellow and red cards: he has been booked 58 times in 220 appearances for Arsenal. He has also seen red 3 times.

So for these Gooners on Twitter, the news of Xhaka's suspension didn't come as a surprise.
