The second match in Euro 2016 - after hosts France kick-off proceedings against Romania - will see Switzerland meet major tournament debutants Albania at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis in Bordeaux on Saturday. Captain Stephan Lichtsteiner wants his team-mate to focus solely on making a good start at Switzerland's fourth European Championship campaign.

SOUNDBITE: (French) Stephan Lichtsteiner, Switzerland captain: (on Switzerland's aims for Euro 2016):

"First and foremost we want to get through the group stage. We want to at least finish second (in Group A) even though it's not necessarily easy. Everyone thinks it's already done and dusted, France first, Switzerland second, but football is not as easy as that. That's why it's important to make a good start tomorrow, to put in a great match and get the right result. And once we've made the last 16 we talk about that again in due course."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Xherdan Shaqiri, Switzerland midfielder (reacting to Kosovo, his country of birth, being admitted to World Cup qualifying by FIFA):

"First of all I'm very happy that Kosovo is in FIFA and UEFA because it's important for this country and for the little kids and for everything and I'm glad they can play now. I don't know if it's true. You said it's true that they can play now for the qualification for the World Cup. If it's true I'm very happy and pleased, but in the moment I can say nothing. I'm really, I'm in a tournament and I want only to speak about this tournament and about this game."
